You can follow the above thread regarding tire pull/drift and alignment. Not twitchy, but it is caster related. I will have some updating posts in the next few days.
In short, it's a matter of the tread-alignment-chassis interface.

Redline,
Bravo on your in "depth" and analytical approach to tire selection. Please keep up the good work. Very informative.
I too am considering the 255/85R16 size in BFG KM2's for my 2008 Xterra or 285 size in DC FCII, MT MTZ and even the Firestone Desti MT.
In addition, the 255's are downright cheaper than the equivalent in 285 in Hawaii by as much as $30-$40 a rubber.
I have been following this thread for a while but was unable to find your issues with the 255 in search.
What exactly was this "tracking" issue you ran into? Does the vehicle drift or pull or worse become overly twitchy?
Thank you in advance for sharing your experience. Dapir8
