    Same as everybody else...
    Ditto...my only gripe is they tend to pickup small stones. Outside of that, great tires.

    I'm really liking my Toyo Open Country ATII's (LT265/70/16) - way quieter than my BFG AT KO, handled just fine in the snow on a few trips to Tahoe, doing excellent in the rain here in the Bay Area this winter. My friend got the Hankook Dynapros and likes them, but I'd highly recommend the Toyos.

    The Nitto Terra Grapplers I had were great compared to BFG AT KOs in the wet traction and mud departments. The KO2s have fixed a lot of the issues with the original KOs.

    Maybe I got a bad set of Duratracs, but bias ply Super Swampers rode better and lasted longer than the Duratracs I had.

    In the last 10 years I've had (3) set of BFG A/T KO, (1) set BFG A/T KO2, (1) set BFG Rugged Trail, (1) set Cooper A/T3, (1) set Goodyear Duratrac, (1) Maxxis Creepy Crawlers Bias, (1) set Nitto Terra Grappler, and (1) Set of Interco Super Swamper LTB.

    Been happy with mine. On my second set now. Good wear and good wet traction.

    Maybe we should talk more often Tristian. :D I have enjoyed both sets I've run of them. ^^^

    Not me. It was the opposite when I bought the ST Maxxs. I bought on a Labor day sale last year and caught a nice rebate. Very rare on the Maxx. I shopped them for months. Ordered from Discount Direct.

    I know they are super common but i have been enjoying the KO2's. They are pretty quiet and did awesome in the snow this winter

    275/70/17's with a 3 inch front/2.5 rear lift

    I'm pretty happy with the Firestone Destination A/T, 265/70/16. Handled the winter well, good in the rain and very quiet on the highway.

    So a lot of choices.

    I actually have Firestone Destination LEs right now. They came on the truck, but I found some new rims and really want an A/T style tire. I'll most likely sell the LEs and turn my OEM rims into winter wheels.

    ST Maxx's. I have the AT3's and as solid of a tire as they are on and off road, I'm getting a set of the ST Maxx's when these are spent. You can't go wrong with Coopers.

    I'm getting Toyo AT 2's on right now, the cooper AT3's are very comparable and it was a close toss up between the two. From my research you cant really go wrong with either tire. The Dynapros looked good to but this may sound stupid but I just couldn't get past the word dynapro, the guy who named that tire should be smacked.

    I was looking at those Toyo's. Good price too. Not really wanting to drop $1k on tires. No way, it's costing that to produce them.

    BFG KO's or KO2's. In my opinion, the best AT you can get with the Cooper coming in a very close second.

    Depends on conditions. For mud get the Coopers for rock get the BFGs. BFGs really suck in the mud. Of course for serious mud get some MTs. Most people spend far too much time on the road for MTs. For most folks it is hard to justify a MT.
