how many miles did you get out of your BFG's? and what load range are they?

Do you want to keep a same AT or maybe go alittle more tougher like say to the duratrac from goodyear? or never take your truck off the street or what? Just depends on what you need.

I run the duratracs as we speak but you might not want something that much, and if I was going to choose an AT it'd be either the BFG which you already have or the Firestone AT, which I have heard ALOT of good things about. I personally probably wont buy them because I tend to be pretty brand loyal which might be dumb but it is what it is. Ive still heard nothing but good things about them even from a guy that has ran everything from BFG AT to BFG MT, and 2 or 3 different goodyear tires on both his lifted ranger and F150 and still has no complaints about the Firestone AT.

Also how many miles are you trying to get out of your tires?

If your looking for a reasonable All-terrain I'd take a look at the new Cooper discoverer AT-3. It is their latest design and is getting rave reviews. I looked at it online, it's a good looking tire too!! I have Goodyear Wrangler AT/S on mine. I have been happy with them. They have 55,000 miles on them. When I replace them I will probably go with the Cooper I mentioned because I can get it cheaper. Whatever you get, be ready to pay out the you know what! Rubber is out of control

here's a link to that tire. I really like the look of it(click on 360 view). I ran Cooper Discoverer ATR on a previous vehicle and loved that tire, rode super smooth.

I have owned Bridgestone Duelers, Goodyear Wranglers, and lastly BFGoodrich TA on my previous F150s. Must admit that the BFG TA was the best I've experienced. I tow fairly frequently and live on gravel roads around my neighborhood, I got over 60K out of TA when I traded my 02 earlier this summer, it had probably 5K left on it. Most likely I'll buy TA again for my current F150 in next month or two.
