Nitto Terra Grapplers or Toyo A/T's there great tires. Although, this is like asking someone about exhausts.

You ask 20 people for tire opinions and you'll get 20 different answers!

BFGoodrich All Terrain T/A KO is a good all purpose tire and usually wears well also. I have heard some good things about the Yokohama Geolander ATS also and it is a bit less expensive. The Toyo Open countryis very good too, more on the BFG price line though.

I have the Toyo Open Country A/T's. I like them. Good traction (not crazy though) quiet, and they have been wearing really well.

I ahve also had the BFG A/T's. They wore REALLY good, but were the WORST winter tire i ever had. Dont know if that is an issue where you drive, but something to think about.

toyo open country at's awesome, i've got Goodyear Wrangler Silen Armour AT's, they are reeaallly good, they're right there performance with the BF goodrivh AT's. also the Nitto Terra Grappler AT's is probably by far the best bang for the buck, i'm definitely gettin those next!

Toyo, Mickey Thompson are probably the two best as far as ride quality and wear go with the Nitto's probably not being too far behind...
