I agree.

Get BF Goodrich and you will be very happy. They wear great, they look great, they have great traction, they are just a great all around tire.

Why buy anything but the best ?

Well....looks like BFG still has the best numbers in ply layers and strength in the AT tires. Gonna stay with em. I knew there was a reason I didnt bother trying others anymore.

well cuz according to the survey, the bridgestone seem to be the best. I'm not sayin' anything againts BFG, I don't have any expirience with either, I'm just curious howcome yall like the BFG's better?

and the most important things to me is tread wear, and dry and mud traction, noise level is a plus but not nessesary fer me, and snow traction . . . what's snow?

3. The Severe weather rating that the BFG carries, but not the revo, or any other tire on the list for that matter.

4. The first 2 sets ran 50K on two different vehicles. In all my years of putting on tires on in Highschool and most of college, I've rarely seen a All Terrain tire of any kind go more than 40K on regular rotations.

I have Nitto Terra Grapplers, only have 4K on them so can not say about wear, but IMO they rock, soft sand, mud, wet streets, no problem, have not had snow here yet, they are very quiet, like a street tire, I was shocked, 265-75/16, paid $120 a tire, even if I do get only 30K I will buy again, good luck

I have a set of bridgestone dueler a/t revo on my f-150. I lived in Michigan and they were great at what ever you drove on snow, mud sand anything. And they wear great. I have 45,000 on them right now and have a good 1/4 inch to go. Out the door for $620 at tire rack for all four.
