    I like the look of them and how they look aggressive. Anybody roll any of these or heard about them. Are they soft?

    I have these on my truck. I don't go off-roading, so I can't say how well they grip vs others. I have not had any issues with these in the snow or rain when I lived in PA and traveled to VA for training. For the price, you can't beat them. I don't recall the price difference between these and the BFG ATs, but I know it's quite a difference.

    If I get a chance to hook up with some people in OK, I would like to try some trail riding, so I can truly test these tires.

    I have them and am impressed, by far the best looking a/t tire out there. I have about 4000 on mine now and there smooth with little road noise. I've only gotten out once in some gravel river banks and they did good. Heres mine.

    They remind me of the BFG's and are around 40-50 dollars cheaper a tire.

    I had them on a Jeep Grand Cherokee, and an F250. They were an excellent snow tire. The only place they weren't excellent was in deep, thick mud.

    They are an awesome tire!!

    I looked at them and my tire guy told me he had mounting issues with them on taco's on 2 occasions in the past. So he talked me into something diff. Still kinda wish I got them. They are supposed to be comparable to the BFG AT, which are also not supposed to be great in mud.

    I have them on my taco, no problems with mounting. Reason I got them is because I have a prerunner and now Im stationed in NY. My truck would get stuck in the parking lot when it snowed with the stock tires :mad:. Haven't had a problem since I purchased these. Makes the truck look way better too.

    I've run the General Grabber A/T's (pre-AT2) and BFG's. I ran them both through some pretty hairy stuff, from mud to gravel roads and logging trails. Both were equal on the road, but I noticed the BFG aired down better and gave me better traction off-road. Both were a load range C, same size tire, and I went to the same mud holes and 4-wheeler trails with both sets, so the conditions were pretty damn near equal.

    Absolutely definitive answers across the board? Probably not. But good enough that I'll buy the BFGoodrich's before I get another set of General Grabbers.
