    Either one of these will blow Nitto's out of the water. They're cheap too. Better looking IMO also.

    The Grabber AT2's look almost the exact same as the BFG's

    like he said the hankooks have the 50,000 mile warranty and i could be wrong but i think the at2's have a 60,000 mile.

    i know you said you were referring to the other grabbers. totally cool i understand. but you have the bfg ko's in ur poll and you say u dont like the look of the at2's? they look almost identical.

    So you go for looks over performance?

    You crack me up lol... The AT2's look just like the BFG's you have in your poll.

    whether or not you buy mine or go with something else i wish you good luck for sure. just an fyi dura tracs are not a mud terrain tire. they are a all terrain tire and carry the respective warranty as well. usually mud terrain tires do not for the most part. they are referred to as a heavy duty commercial light truck tire and are one of the handful sold that are severe winter and snow rated. your sig has you sitting in like 2 feet of snow lol duratracs eat that shit up hard core! just an fyi i know you said they didn't do much for you just wanted to set the record straight. good luck guy with what ever you end up with:)

    mtr's with kevlar are supposed to be phenomenal tires also but they are a true mt tire and carry with them their drawbacks if you consider them drawbacks. my new set is either going to be the dura tracs again or the kevlars can't decide which yet.

    Color matched and satoshi grille, hella 500ff behind, bhlm, sockmonkey bedsides, 17" sports 265/70 grabber at2's.
    the at2's will last a hell of a lot longer than the bfg's especially if u do a lot of highway driving. Like i said a 60,000 mile warranty. bfgs i dont think have anything. i got barely 32,000 out of my bfg's that i had on my tundra. I have a buddy that has the e-rated at2's on an f350 and he has 80,000 and they are still legal. Just tryin to help ya out man. you say you dont have much to spend on tires and you do a lot of highway driving. if that was my predicament id go at2's. the nittos are a good tire to. those were in my 3 choices when i was shopping.
