Good Year tires on 07 H2 Wheels

Was thinkin bout getting some chrome Hummer take offs from Ebay.
I guess 07 H2's come with 315/70R17 Goodyear Wrangler AT Extremes instead of BFG AT's.
Was wondering what your opinions are of the Good Years over the BFG AT's?

Not a big BFG fan myself and have read threads where people atribute their death wobble to 315 BFG's...


Also, do you think going from 285 to 315's I'll be losing most of the power I've gained when I put my BDTD on? I tow a 5000 pound trailer up some steep grades in the interior of BC on our fishing trips and like to keep it in 5th (an ego thing I guess¿) ...

The 315 goodyear AT extremes are VERY soft, I like the BFG's better. Only a very few number of 07 H2's came with those, they switched back to BFG after there was a shortage of Goodyears.

I can't speak for others but my H2 knockoffs w/ BFGs have over 50K miles on them (& still another 15K of life left), good ride, and No Death Wobble. I have to believe that alot that have had death wobble blamed the BFG's when other things were the cause (camber, ball joints, etc.).

If I were smart, I'd get these tires again, but I want more of a Mud Terrain. Good thing no one ever accused me of being smart!
