i've got the mickey atz in the 305's and i love them ride great and do amzing in the mud . i have 6000 miles on them and they still look like new... they will make some low speed noise on ashalt and i mean very little but on the highway none at all
i wouldn't think twice about get a new set when i need them

You'll have quite a few experienced and knowledgeable truck owners vehemently disagreeing with you. I've owned many sets on many different trucks and they are my first choice in an A/T tire, always getting 50K or more out of them. Perhaps you had a bad set or a bad experience with them, but to throw a blanket over the brand and call them the worst tires ever made is assinine. When I get the mileage out of my factory tires (also BFG ), I'll be mounting a set of 305 BFG A/T's on mine, knowing I can expect long and trouble-free life life from a tire tough enough to handle any abuse I may throw at it.

I have BFG All Terrain 285x70x17's & absolutey LOVE THEM! Last winter during a 1' snow storm I could not even get stuck if I wanted too! Don't know what you problem with them is? They also resist many highway hazards suck as nail & such, 3 ply sidewall, & a BAJA Champion Tire......Long trouble free life, I rotate mine every 6K, so far in 15 K miles, they look still new! What more could you want in a AT Tire? Geeezzz!

Don't know if you're talking to me but I don't have a problem with BFG AT just don't come in the size I'm wanting. Kinda wanted to go with something different like the Mickey T ATZ's cause look good and from what I gathered are a dam good tire plus nobody has them around here where I live.

Well after researching and looking at Tires for the last 2 weeks I just ran out on my lunch break and purchased the Mickey Thompson ATZ. I have a four wheel parts about a 1/2 mile away. So once they are in and installed hopefully next week I will be able to provide some feed back on them.

I haven't gotten them put on yet. 4 Wheel parts had to get them from their warehouse in Texas. So hopefully they will get put on Friday. Will be nice to have them for the long weekend. I'll make to post once I have them.
They are the 305/60R18. That was as big as they recommended i go.
