I agree. I have them on mine and they truly work wonders in the dirt.

pics below, honestly, im leanin towards toyo open country a/t bc their cheaper and my dad has them on his f250 and i love them. best friend had the tako's on his z71 and love them, it was time for new tires, liked my dads toyos, and now likes the toyos more than the takos for less money.

i doubt i would get the toyo open country m/t's...so its tako or open country a/t..what to do what to do. atleast i have a while to think about it and decide weather i want to spend the extra cash. imo they look more aggressive. but idk, ive got time and plenty of it


heres the bfgtako



heres the toyo open country a/t


toyo open country m/t

Same here, I'm running those tires on mine and I get awesome traction. I've tried mine out on dirt, snow, and some mud (not heavy mud), and each time they get the job done!

I just got the Firestone Destination AT's I think is what they are. Look them up on TireRack.com they are a better overall tire than the BFG's and a LOT cheaper....

The tires cost me 109 each, 7.50 to mount and balance, and then the dealer gave me 50 dollars per each stock tire I gave him. So I mean, by all means, if you want new tires, trade the ones that are on there now, and see how much you can get for them, I only put like 4500 miles on my stock tires, and the other 5500 on my summer tires.

I just put the Nitto Terra-Grapplers on mine, and so far I havent found anything they wont get me through within reason. Before, my stockers couldn't even get me up my drive if it was snowy or iced over without going into 4wd, but these hook right up no problem. I'm kind of waiting to see how they last mileage wise though, but I only drive about a mile round trip to work everyday anyways...
