I'm set on Hankook Dynapro AT but.....

Zac808 · 11-06-2009, 09:08 PM

they are 10 ply

. Damn it. They got good reviews but I just found out they are "gas guzzlers". I will still get these unless someone has a better idea. I'm looking for:
1. Decent mileage
2. A/T w/ an aggressive tread pattern
3. Decent MPG's
4. Handle snow and ice well
5. Good road manners. Most off-roading I do is gravel roads/trails

I think BFG A/T and Nitto T/G are 10 ply as well so they are out. NEXT???

Panda Jerk · 11-06-2009, 09:11 PM

you can get 8 ply bfg A/T's derekabraham had em

cmack48 · 11-06-2009, 09:13 PM

I'm most likely going to run Hankook Dynapros soon. Either AT or MT. Haven't decided. Tempted to get the MTs since they are only $8 more, but who knows.

Scottcrumley24 · 11-06-2009, 09:14 PM

I'm looking at the HK A/Ts aswell...They seem to be nice tires and 50K tread warranty can't be beat. They look aggressive too. I've yet to see em on a taco though

socal16 · 11-06-2009, 09:17 PM

i run ten ply bfgs and i dont notice a difference and my trucks 4x4 if that matters

Thanks for the link bud...but that focused on the M/T. Seems to be a recommended tire though eh?

Yeah, cousin sent me that link. Overall though, it seems to be a decent tire to go with. Whether it's MT or AT.

no warranty though and the Hankooks tread is almost identicle

DIRTRIDER · 11-07-2009, 08:31 AM

I've got a set of the p metrics on my tacoma, 265/75/16. I lost about 1 1/2 mpg, but other than that they are great tires. Good traction in mud and snow and ride is decent.

Nice, thats the size I want too

thanks for the info

Zac808 · 11-07-2009, 11:08 AM

What are p metrics??

texasbowhunter · 11-07-2009, 03:12 PM

I want to get the Hankook M/T 305's for mine. My truck looks funny right now with my lift and 265's. I have heard a lot of good things about these tires and I think the 305's are 8 ply.

IndigoTaco · 11-07-2009, 05:23 PM

I don't know where you found the info for the BFG All Terrain....Just had mine put on (265/70/17) and they are 6ply, C Load.

I think when you jump to 265/75/16 it changes ply's. I may be wrong.

Zac808 · 11-07-2009, 08:04 PM

Hmmm..... I might be looking into Firestone Destination "P" version. Any experiences?
