    I'm looking for an AT tire for my 2016 DCSB TRD OR
    I can't decide what I should get so I figured I'd get some advice.
    I'll be running 265/75R16

    BFG ko2
    General grabber AT2
    Duratrac

    These are my top 3 choices right now.
    Any other suggestions?

    Duratracs are loud, my friends has a set. Work well though.

    I chose ko2 because of price and proven many decades of good history on the KO's. They're are also very quiet for a pretty aggressive a/t.

    At2 seem pretty similar to the BFG in looks atleast, maybe traction, but were more expensive when/where I was looking.

    I'd vote ko2, they get my DCLB Prerunner up a silty pretty chewed up steep little hill near my house with 36 psi

    Duratrac if you live in snow, but they are loud.

    I'd say k02

    But I would highly recommend toyo at2 - those tires have super long tread life.

    I would not run load range E on a Tacoma. You need to pick up some Toyota take off 17's and run 265/70/17 KO2's in load range C. It will make a huge difference.

    If you stick with 16's, go Toyo to save the weight.

    Love my Toyo AT2 in C-load. I was looking to save weight at 45 lbs. I think they're a pretty aggressive looking AT with deep tread and I personally think they're still very quiet on the road. As was stated they are light and have a very long tread life. I haven't had any issues in all weather conditions so far.
