So snow is ganna be flying around me the next day or two and I still got my summer rims on my stock tires are shot. I've been searching for new tires but it seems like all you read about is the good anyone got ideas on good tire brand and bad. Tire size is 285 75 16 I've been thinking yokohama, general tire, falken, or nitto all will be A/T unless I can find a good mudding tire that might last me a while for once. Any ideas will be great.

 

give treadwright a try. a couple other members on here have them, and i will be getting a set soon. theyre re-treads but they seem to have alot of good reviews. stay away from goodyear and the like. mastercraft courser at2's are a great a/t tire and are fairly aggressive.

 

BFG AT's are amazing ive had mine for almost 3 years and they are still like new when balanced and rotated properly so i would recommend those to you

 

General AT2's We put them on id say 75% of the trucks that leave the shop. I've only ever had one complaint from a customer and that was due to a defect.

 

retreads seems almost to good to be true. Hate to break it to ya but my summer rims got goodyear wrangler with kevlar haha love them. But never buy them again.

 

Mickey Thompson MTZ all the way

 

I am using the Goodyear mt-r/k and as soon as I can I am going back to the Cooper STT for the winter.

 

How do they last? I have ran several sets of BFG at's and always loved them... hook up great and last a long time. The tread design of the generals are dang near the same as the BFG's, so I figure they will hook up just as well, just wondering about the wear. And they are much more reasonably priced then BFG's.

 

They are better then BFG's in almost every way. They really are almost too good to be true. They hook up better in wet conditions, they clear themselves better, they are great in loose sand as well as hard pack. I've one customer who's reported over 30k on his so far, and there was a fair amount of tread left on them. What else makes them superior to bfgs is that they are damn near silent on the highway. The reason that you don't see a ton of them on the road, is because what can a tire retailer make more money off of. A $260 BFG, or a $160 General? If places like discount actually offered the tire in their showrooms (its a special order and they drag their heels to get them) BFG would have a serious problem. The only way the BFG's are better is the sidewalls are a bit more reinforced. Unless you're racing though, this isn't a factor to even consider. Nobody runs them though, they're crap as far as racing is concerned.

General has really stepped up their tires to make them viable for desert racing. That's the direction most large offroad mfg's are going these days. Its the largest and fastest growing part of the offroad community, in the entire world. From Dakar to Anza-Borrego.

 

Huh, I will have to seriously check them out then. Old maroon is soon due for new rubber, and it was without question going to get a set of BFG at's... but now I may have to question.
