I have 31x10.50 BFG AT KO on my Bronco and they are pretty quiet if you ask me. I don't notice any noise if there is any at all. I have heard the roar of other tires and these just don't have that problem at all. I would recommend them to anyone.

I have to agree. I run BFG AT KOs on my bronco and I love them. There not really noisy on the highways and there also great for easy off roads eg: snow, mud, or grass ect... I would recomend them.

At the risk of sounding just like everyone else...go for the BFG's. I have never run anything but BFG All Terrains. The noise is not a factor with these tires and the traction on and off road is hard to beat. I am runnng 33x12.50's on Mickey thompson 15x10 rims. I have a set of 31x10.50's with about 20K on them and a set of factory alloy rims. These are just sitting around because I haven't gotten them posted for sale anywhere yet. I ran Tellico ORV park with these and open diffs. on a bone stock 92 and only got "winch stuck" twice and that was on a very soupy trail #4.

I have to disagree with the pack here. It almost seems like a religion. My kid has them and they are not very good highway tires. I also hate the way they (BFG is now owned by Michelin) refuse to let dealers advertise discount prices.
I run the Bridgestone Dueler A/T. Better snow traction and much better highway performance, mud is not an issue here. List prices are high, but you can deal on them because of no price fixing.

jimandmandy how does your son drive? Everyone I know has these tires and they are great. My brother-in-law has a F250 Diesel that he hauls heavy loads and does a lot of highway travel and has always done well with BFGs. Bridgestone=Firestone=Never on another of my vehicles! Have had one good set of Fireston tires. broken belts are usually the problems we have had on all Firestone products and good luck trying to get any warranty satisfaction.
But hey if you got a good set from them I am happy for you. The one good set I had dry rotted before tread wore out.
