Big O AT's on '07 taco?

Howdy All;
I am new to this forum, but am looking forward to the insight of the members. I need to replace the OE rubber (BFG Rugged Trails) on my '07 taco. As I live and work in snow country, this is an issue. I do some basic 4X4 runs, but nothing serious, as this is my daily ride. In the summer I do put some highway miles, heading for the beach. BFG AT's are expensive. Any thoughts on the Big O AT's? or other suggestions? I am upgrading to 265/75 16's. One more question, any opinions on load range C or D for my rig?
Thanks!

Welcome to TW. BFG ATs are great but i have not heard of the other ones. I would go with load range C unless you tow or load your truck every day. They will ride better.

 

Thanks Matt for the intro and your advice. This is not my work truck, so not any unusual weight factors; maybe LR C is enough... Regarding the tires, I need at leqst an 'all terrain' tire, but probably not mudders; any thoughts are appreciated. I did not mention in my original post that my truck is a 4X4.
Thanks, Skip
