All right, got my wheels today, also figured out what size tire to go with. Now my dilema, what tire to go with, I have narrowed it down to 3.
Any feed back on them is appreciated, I have had BF's on 2 different trucks and was pretty happy with them. The other two , I have no idea about.

1) Bf's KO 2)General Grabber MT 3)Procomp MT


I will be on road 95% of the time, but like the looks of a more "agressive" tire.

Any feed back is appricated.



Thanks

Bf's KO Bf's KO Bf's KO Bf's KO Bf's KO Bf's KO Bf's KO Bf's KO Bf's KO Bf's KO

choose the BFG MT KO, quiet, perform good, look good, not too expinsive, last a long time.

So Orange Peel, Im guessing here but what your saying is you like the BF's ?:P

I also have had good luck with them, but was wondering if there is anything else out there. At this point the Bf's are probably what will go on unless I hear otherwise.

Thanks

a lot of my friends run the BFG's and they work well for them (i like my TSL's better) and i really like the look and the way they perform. i can stand pro comp tires or shocks, just can stand them. im not really sure about the grabbers i have ever really looked at them for more than 30 sec.

well i'm not sure if your refering to the bfg mud terrain km's or the all terrain ko's. If your comparing to the all terrains, the generals and the procomps are going to be better in the mud. I'd go with the mud terrain km's if i were you. like you i do mostly highway driving and i'm extremly happy with them...

Good luck
Ryan

I would also suggest the BFG MT's, for only a few dollars more than AT's you cant go wrong. My 2 cents

I have BFG all terrain KO's. I like them. The BFG mud terrain KM's are also a good tire. You could get those new Goodyear Wranglers. I'm not to favorable of pro comp, but definitely do not go with the generals. If you ask me all general tires are crap. They arent as bad as firestone though. LOL

I love my BFG Mud terrains. By far the best tire I have ever had. I even converted my buddy who was a Bridgestone/Firestone man to the BFG mudders after seeing what my little Bronco with a 4 inch lift could do with these tires. I mean we were able to run some trails in two wheel drive strictly because of the tires. We even tried to get stuck and really could not. OK OK now I am just talking trash.

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 28-Feb-02 AT 07:53 PM (EST)]Thanks to all who have posted,I have decided to go with :

BF GOODRICH MUD TERRAIN T/A KM 35X12.50R16.5D

Best price I can find is $771 which includes shipping.
My local tire places dont stock the 35 so , I figure I would rather order them myself than let the kid behind the counter skrew it up.



Thanks again guys

i would try NTW before you make a final desition, they usually have pretty good prices, and 4wheelparts.com has sales always goin on and some of there prices are pretty low, but ive heard that they tend to mess up orders.

Thanks for all your input, Orange Peel , it is appreciated I will check the others out for sure. Still have at least another month here, before I bolt the good wheels on. Still pushing snow in my part of town.

I don't know how much the shipping and all that is but i figured i'd inform you that 4wheelparts.com has the 35s for 165 each.
