AT tires
Firestone Destination ATs (245-70-16)great all around tire, good on snow , ice and rain wore great got tired of themand went bigger good tire for the money
Kumho KL78s ( 255-70-16s) again good running tire not as quiet as the Destinations were , more open tread and louder at 35-50, wore great good all around tire wheeled with them in mud and on rocks
I have ran BFG ATs as well and they are a really good tire but expensive, but putting a set on in 265-70-16s cause I got them for a great deal really great!! :twisted:

Lots of prople like the Grabber they look good and seem to do fairly well over all.

One of the best tires I've ever had were the Dayton Timberlines. They have went to a little less aggressive tread, but still good low aggressive AT. I have Toyo open country AT's now on my Tahoe, my dad has them on a Fullsize chevy... we love them.
I know of 4 people, including myself, who have had Bridgestone Duelersv revos....worst tire ever made IMO, All 4 of us hated them, super poor wet traction...or maybe it was just the raw HP of our Chevys

I also had BFG AT's and really wasn't impressed with wet traction on them, but I know they are a good overall tire.

For a heavy pig that my KJ is the best tires I have run(even not on my KJ) have been GoodYears MT/R,the next best was Interco's Boggers though not to street freindly.

You couldn't pay me to put BFG's on any vehicle I would be driving,went through 6 of those junk AT's/MT's in less then 200 miles from cut sidewalls and no rocks or tree roots at all,just deep mud :twisted:

.

Intertco's Trxus MT's are okay(what I'm running now),not ment for a heavy rig like mine,great in mud but I don't do mud anymore.

well what i have are the TOYO AT OPEN COUNTRY, not a bad tire but i really havent put them to work yet. and i also have the TSL's which are not very asphalt friendly, but have never left me stuck in the mud, rock, sand, anything. but due to their bad road manners, they dont last long on the asphalt, but thats only cuz of the soft rubber compound they are made of. but really on the road manner situation, they are only loud. they handle corners well and are wide and great for stability. but the only way i would buy them if only i was gonna get them for mud and rock crawling ONLY.

my other choice for my next set are gonna be:

these are my choices, yeah i cant deciede either bro.

I just bought a set of Treadwright A/T-G tires. I have only had them on for a couple thousand miles so far, but they seem to be great tires so far - especially for the price. Mine were on BFG AT TA KO cores. We have only have wet weather so far since I got them, no snow or ice. But hey had great traction in the wet stuff. I even tried to break them loose and they still stuck to the pavement.

thats a nice site and very affordable if you are looking for a 10" wide tire, but i couldnt find anything that was 11" wide in a 15", but i will tell you this, i am gonna buy some of those cheap MTR's when they get in stock again.
