ok i decided on 20" black SRT reps...
now i need to decide on a good 275/55 R20 tire... it is down to 3:
cooper zeon LTZ

Nitto Terra Grappler

Bridgestone Dueler AT Revo

The 275/55/20's come out to about 6" of sidewall... so the pics are NOT of the correct size tires.

Nitto are good for performance and are nice set of tires but they wear quicker than the others
bridgestone are really in the middle ok comfort and performance
I am not a fan of cooper tires just IMHO

FYI the Nittos have a short thread life and are very mushy, if you want functionality over look, Revo's do deliver on and off-road.
Not sure on the Coopers.

i have heard that they are all in the same ballpark as far as quality/ride/traction, but that the nittos are diffidently more... "aggressive" in every way.
from the reviews, the Revo is supposed to be amazing.... really the only thing stopping me is the look of the nittos...
honestly tho, i used to have Super Swamper TSL's.... now THOSE were a BITCH on the road...

i picked the nittos they look good for road and offroad, and i almost bought the nitto street tires for the 20s.

I just put the Nitto's on my Jeep and I love them. They are very quiet and give a pretty aggressive look without going to a mud terrain or a tire that will be loud and dominate your MPG's. I can't say much for treadwear, only had em a week, but I got a full alignment when I got them mounted and had them filled with Nitrogen. Little precautions will allow you to get as much life out as possible.

Nitto's all the way! I have some 265/70/17s and they're incredible on pavement, snow, and mud! Got them for $147 ea at Tire Kingdom.

I had both Nitto's and Revo's.
Both are good on road tires. if I had to pick between the two I would give the edge to Revo's for ride and the edge to the Nitto's for looks.
You can't go wrong with either, unless you will be going off road. I had sidewall problems with each when off road.
