Thanks for the input. Interestingly, and maybe it's accounting for a load, the book & door say 29 front/41 rear. The 225's, which I don't have says 54 rear. Seams pretty high in the rear without a load. I've been running 32 in the rear.
That said, I still need tires & shocks. Tires are of age & shocks have showed signs of leaking some time ago. Last rotation I had an alignment done & everything checked out mechanically.
I'll do some more research on the shocks, but probably go with OEM as Liverpool Lou said.
I was hoping someone might have had a Wow moment with some brand of truck tires here. I've had those impressed moments with certain motorcycle tires, and no doubt, some disappointments also.
Couldn't find anything through the search here, but found this & more searching internet.

I'll add, driving my wife's new car & riding my new bike most likely made me more sensitive to all this.
Thanks again!
