I have mentioned this tire before but it seems to be ignored. I have them on and they handle extremely well, are tough, and run incredibly quiet and smooth at all speeds legal and jail.
Continental Cross Contact UHP
Front 255/50/Zr19
Wear rating 420AAA
Weight rating 2149 #
50 psi max
29.1" diameter
This size fills the wheel well nicely, my truck is lowereed with no issues.
It is also available in 295/45/19

Rear: 295 45/Zr 20
wear rate 420AAA
Weight rating 2601 #
50 psi max
dont have diameter but is same as the 295/45 KDW2
It is also available in 295/40/20.
There are good reviews of this tire on the tire rack. As I have mentioned before they were specifically designed for heavier high performance vehicles.
To me the higher profile of the 50 fronts and 45 rears looks more truck like, fills the fenders nicely, and stiffer sidewall handles s well even ti this profile. But for those inclined, lower profiles are available as referenced.
