    BFG A/T's have been around longer, more well known, might be a little bit more money depending on where you go. I think the DuraTracs look a little bit more aggressive.

    I imagine MPG's will be about the same - not enough of a difference to worry about it either way.

    If you go with the DuraTracs, I would recommend signing up with Tread Lightly! (www.treadlightly.org), you pay $25 for a one-year membership and you're able to utilize their $100 manufacturer rebate on Goodyear tires. Net gain of $75. That is what I will be doing when I go with the DuraTracs, except I'm already a member. :D
