MT's vs. AT's
#13
I had BFG AT 35's on my truck.
They lasted 50,000 + miles. ( 90 % on-road )
I just purchased a set of new tires and was going to go with the same BFG's ( AT ), but did a lot of looking at tire reveiws on line and I made a switch.
I went Goodyear MTR kevlars ( 35 X 12.50 ).
On all of the reveiws, the Goodyears beat the BFG AT's in eveything but tread life. The BFG was rated a 3.8 out of a 5 and the Goodyear was rated a 3.6 out of a 5.
Goodyears beat the BFG's in dry pavement, wet pavement, snow, ice, and mud.
I am 3000 miles into these tires and really like them so far.
They are very, very quite for the agressive tread design. Not much louder then the BFG AT's.
I also dropped down years ago when I lifted the truck to 15" rims.
I got the Gooyear MTR Kevlars ( 35 X 12.50 X 15 ) for $225.00 ea installed and Goodyear had a $80.00 rebate going on, so that's $205.00 a tire.
