I loved my BFG's when I had them and I thought they were very quite. Not sure about the others. The tires I have on my truck now were quite when I bought them but as they have aged they have gotten louder.

 

I have had BFG's on the HUMMER H2 and 37's on my F250 didn't notice loud and they wear like iron.... will be my next tires for the F350..


so what if the tires are a little loud.... CHICKS DIG IT....


If I wanted quiet I would have bought a gasser... but then upgraded the exhaust and quiet gone... oh well

 

Actually I told him that BFG is good and hummer owners
Love them .

Yes about chicks my aunt have a big big gun , and if I told her husband that chicks dig loud tires I'll end up with a big hole in my tiny head .

 

Any one used the Yokohama ats and Hancock ATM

 

BFG's are hands down the best tire. Quite, good all around tire and like stated earlier, they wear like iron.
I have had the Yokohama AT they are good tires also. The BFG's are just better.

 

I'll reaffirm BFG's For the Win. To me the best AT out there.

 

About this size 315/70/17 do he needs a lift ?
Because he already got some nice 17 wheels -12 offset ,4.60 back spacing and 9 width . My concern is rubbing the spring with that size .

 

Maybe it's just me, but I've never run an A/T tire that's been appreciably louder than a street tire. I've run the BFGs and the Yokohamas. As stated, both good tires, but the BFGs are better off the pavement.

That being said, I usually run an M/T so it could just be that comparatively all tires are quiet to me at this point.

 

I currently have 315's on my 00 250 CC and I love them. my truck sees 85% road and 15% gravel/fs roads.

But my truck is used as a truck for pulling a camping trailer, hunting, fishing, etc.

 

I only have about 5 hours on my BFG's and can def say they are a hell of a lot quieter , smoother and kidney forgiving then the Mikey Thompson Baja Claws I had before. Wet weather and snow I will find out in the morning .

 

Then BFG is the better choice . I might also be doing 315/70/17 to my EX instead of 325/60/20 I think it's better and a bit cash saver


And today I saw a brand new BFG model KO2 and the tire looks very nice with new wall design .

Thanks
