Tire Comparrison
Has anyone here used BFG All-Terrain KO's? or Dunlop Rover M/T Maxx Traction? I have heard nothing but good things about All-Terrains, but the Dunlop is about the same price and is much more aggressive looking.
I'm leaning towards the Dunlops, you guys thoughts?

I had the BFG A/t KOS in 285/70/17. I personally hated them. Not worth the money in my opinion, I was always having problems with gaining traction with them. I've got the destination m/ts now and so far been very pleased. The nice thing about the BFG's is their strength. I put those tires through so many nails and screws. I caught a sharp rock and the rock sliced the inside sidewall pretty deep but didn't do any structural damage to the tire. They'll put up with a lot of abuse but if you want a good traction tire, I'd stay away from em. If most of your driving is on road, then I'd get an A/T tire. I had the destination a/t tire and that tire was hands down the best a/t tire I've ever owned. Had them on a 2wd truck and I never once got stuck driving through miles of virginia clay and they were awesome in the rain/ice.
If you are putting 20k of highway miles a year on your truck, then the last thing you should be looking for is "more aggressive" tread!
A set of Mickey Thompson ATZs or Nitto Dura Grapplers are more the tire for you, IMO...
Well my job is kind of odd, I can be driving all over the state in the middle of winter to go to job sites, or just commuting between locations.....
I just looked at the Terra Grapplers and they are about 100 dollars more than the other tires.
Thanks for the advice. It's good to hear different protectives
