I've already picked out the tires I want for my '24 Ram 1500, Bighorn 4x4. What I need help with is which width to get. The tires on it are 275/65r18.
I live in rainy, W. Oregon and sometimes encounter a little snow, some greasy, clay mud, sand, and gravel roads. This is for my "hunting rig". I don't plan on towing or hauling anything heavy. I'll pull my drift boat, but the Subaru can do that. I won't be doing heavy, off-road running, but sometimes find myself in dicey situations.
The tires I'm looking at come in 255-275 widths. Narrow tires are good in certain conditions and wide tires in others. I'm thinking that maybe a middle of the road width tire would be a good compromise as an "all 'round" tire, capable of being okay in most conditions, while not the best in any.
Do you think a 265mm would be a good choice for me?
Here's the chart from the Nokian Outpost nAT site:
