Mickey T's or BFG's ????
I had BFG AT KO's on my F150 and really enjoyed them. I know you can get a ton of mileage out of them and they handle well while keeping the noise low, BUT I was thinking about something diffrent for the F250. I currently have brand X 315/75/16 on the truck. The wheels are staying. So the question is will the Mickey Thompson Baja ATZ give me the same life span as the BFG's? What else would you recommend?
The truck goes offroad a dozen time a year, but spends alot of time pulling boats up slippery boat ramps. I want something not to aggressive and quite on the highway. Thanks.

I have the BFGs and have ran them on just about every 4x4 truck that I ever had. They ride nice and they're quiet and they do what they have to do when the time comes. But.....those MT Bajas sure are sharp looking.

i was about to go with a Mickey Thompson ATZ when i bought my new wheel setup, but i decided i didnt want a 15.50 tire. however, the tread pattern looks cool, and the noise should be low on the highway. it all comes down to what you want, do you want to fit in with everyone or be different? i have never seen a truck on the street (superduty) with ATZ's on. sure, i have in pics, but not in person. but, also that may be saying something right there.

I'll be spending the money on the BFG's the next time around specifically for the increased lifespan. I'm sick of putting tires on it every year and a half.

I had Yokohamas on my Dodge (don't throw rocks, I dumped it) and they wore pretty fast. They weren't Geolanders though. Can't remember the model but they had a really cool looking tread pattern.
