    Im looking into getting some new tires. I currently have 265/75/16 BFG MK2's but I am thinking of getting a bigger size. My options being BFG AT KO2's, Good year Duractracs, Fierce Attitude MT, or Nitto Trail Grapplers. Most Probably would get a 285/75/16 but in the case of the nittos i would get 285/70/16. Any Suggestions!? I would do very little off roading since it barely rains where I live, but I would like the tire to be a little meaty.

    I would be adding a 1.75' lift in the front and a 1' lift in the back if that helps you all choosing. :p

    I have the trail grapplers, my mpg dropped by almost 4 because of them. They are an extremely heavy tire. I had duratracs before these and they did very well for me.

    Ive been happy with all the goodyear tires I have run on multiple vehicles.

    BFG has really let me down over the years so even though they redesigned an old tired outdated tread pattern and material.. I still dont trust them.

    I love these tires! Thing is I may be trasnfering to another college soon, and I need a highway friendly tire, but I'd like it to be bulky too. Basically an all terrain beefy tire that will be dependable off roading and for highway.
    Thanks for letting me know Ill fix it ASAP! Although you can still see my build on the camera under posts.

    They do look preety heavy, so duractracs are really good tires then? I love goodyear my pop always used to get Wrangler Mt/r's. Just never got a pair myself but I really am considering them.

    I really am considering the duractracs they look like a multipurpose tire althought the KO'2 are really good also. I would need to think about it and look at the price difference for both. Have you heard anything of the FIerce Attitudes? Ive heard they are goodyear and others tell me they are dunlop tires, look preety good just wouldnt know about them.

    The fierce attitudes are made by Kelly which is owned by Goodyear. My cousin has them on his 3/4 ton diesel. They have done him fine.

    Love my Fierce Attitudes. Had Duratracs on my Jeep and the Fierce Attitudes seem to have much better wet traction.

    Do you have any pictures of your build? I'd love to see a taco with Fierce Attitudes.

    Trail graps FTW..... Yes they are heavy but they are great off-road to highway and quiet for an mt. I was between the KO2's and the Nitto trail grapplers when I was deciding on my tires. I am glad I went with the Nitto's.
