which would you say should be better in the mud?
the yoko a/t or the bfg a/t?

the yoko's look to be more highway style.
I'm sure the bfgs could follow the yoko's anywhere offroad, as long as the trucks/drivers were the same.

just my opinion on the looks of them.

why did you only run the cooper s/t's for a week?

 

I'm mainly getting the Yoko's because of money issues. They will be about $300 cheaper for the set. I have talked to a few guys that have them on daily driver/hunting rigs, and they have been happy with them. And a 40k warranty.

The truck with the Coopers got stolen, I would love to get another set of them, but they are only a few bucks cheaper than the BFG. And I just don't have $800 for tires right now.

 

sucks the other truck was stolen.

and damm 40k warranty?? thats awesome, those will be my next tires!!!
thanks for the info!

I have the bfg a/t's right now but they came on the truck, so I can't complain.... plus they are in like new condition.

are they yours load range E?

 

Up here in the mountains of Northern Kali, mud tires don't work well in the kind of snow we get, but the BFGs work pretty dang good in the snow and ice. The rest of the time I off road in sand/gravel, loose rock stuff, or just plain rock crawl - the BFGs work well for all that. They also wear pretty well on the street, for an A/T type tire.
Little or no mud around here, too sandy - otherwise I'd too would be talking about a different kind of tire.

They make them in a D, but the load rating is like 3300, (actually I believe just above that) so in terms of capacity it is more than enough for anything I tow.

 

thats no joke about the baja claws. mine wanders, and pulls real hard when braking, and forget about wet roads(unless siped). other then the on road factor, they are every bit of off road tire that anyone needs for any use. they are good in mud, loose sad, anything youll have to throw at them.

 

I agree w/ florida diesel ki completely.
they are great offroad, but suck in the snow or rain,

 

yep nothing like a unsiped tire on wet roads

 

i have 33'' 12.50's bfg a/t and cant complain i have never been stuck but damed near close to it. wear good to. so they get my vote

 

my bfg a/t's are 285x75x16 on stock 2500 chrome wheels.
good traction on the road, for sure.

 

im basically looking into to BFG A/T, Cooper S/T, Nitto TG and i just thought of the pro comp X terrain...need to look into that one more though

 

What about the Toyo M-55? Had them on my old GMC, very good all around tire and wore like iron.

 

I was very happy with my Cooper Dominator Sport a/t. They have a smoth and quite ride untill the thread peeled off the R/R and did over $3,000 worth of damage to the 1/4 panel and tailgate. I replaced them with BFG all terrain TA-ko. They feel a little loose at freeway speed and high air-pressure. Still trying different pressure/load combos .Size 265/75-16, $370.26 for 2 out the door. NO MUD IN SO-CAL

 

CR,
I put BFG Rugged Trail T/A on this weekend and like them for the 100 miles I have on them. I have buddies that have them with 40K+ miles and still running. They spend 3 months of the year in the mud at hunt camp and never admitt getting stuck.
I have the Michelin LTX on my Jeep Liberty and they are great tires. Downsize was the cost but they handle great in the rain, mud and sand. My wife used the Jeep to pull my F-150 out the ditch when I buried it to the axle.
The only other tire I hear great reviews on is the Dueler. My buddy has Revos on his Wrangler in PA and loves them for all seasons.
Best of luck to you in the selection.
