    I'm getting close to needing new tires and wondering what tires you guys recommend for my tacoma. They're gonna be 33-34 inch tires and 11-12.5 inches wide. Need to be for a 17 inch wheel. Anyway I currently have bfg mtr km2s and they're alright. Not the greatest for the winter time but nothing really seems to be. Anyway I would use them for daily driving occasional off-roading of all types (sand mud snow rock) and want them to look good! Any suggestions are welcome.

    Maxxis bighorns look pretty good and get pretty good reviews from what i can see, nothing negative. Pretty good value also. They will be my next tire in 255/85/16

    I like the looks of the Cooper AT/3, I'd be curious if they are quiet. I'm going to off the map on my Sport and put AT/3s with white letters on it next time.... just because I'm old.

    White letters all the way. I think the BFG all terrains with the white letters are the best looking truck tire out there. Just have to hit the letters with a magic eraser when you wash it.

    The duratracs look good, but they've been problematic since hitting around 25-30k miles. They've been impossible to balance.

    X2 I love my duratracs! Such great tires, they are aggressive looking like a mud terrain but they are still classified as an all terrain tire. They have been great for everything that I've thrown at them. Before I got them I did a ton of reviews and I saw nothing but great things on these tires. Good luck

    Hankook Dynapro M/T's have been great to me. They have an old school mud tire design. So were my previous Dick Cepek Mud Country those are eye catchers too.
