BFG AT KO's. 75k on a 97 taco 4x4- these replaced the factory tires. Still a lot of tread left, but I'm due. Only stuck once- slid off the trail into the ditch in the snow. (would like to blame the tires.. but... buddies say driver error :rolleyes:)

Snow is my determinig factor. I recently went to both Les Schwab and Discount who told me to stay away from mud terrains :dunno: They said big lugs = hockey pucks on compact snow, and wont ride on top of new snow very well...forcing you to power/chew through- which might be fun but not that safe.

They both told me A/Ts perform much better in fresh and compact snow - they are snow rated.

For the record- I wanted a M/T (bfg or toyo)- came in last month looking to buy some bigger more aggressive (yeah... and cool looking) tires. I gave them every chance to sell me a more expensive tire in a M/T... but they both kept steering me away from the M/T's ... unless (they said) I was going to be wheelin' or finding myself in deep mud- which I haven't had issues with in the past 10 years. The dumps of 1-2 feet of snow in Nov. is when it gets sketchy for me.

Haven't bought yet... so interested in more snow opinions too.

I've run Les Schwab Toyo MT Open Country 10 plys on my last two trucks with no complaints.

ICEMAN:
Dansk, (as I stated earlier) the MT's worked pretty good for me this past season in a bit of snow. I still may get them siped for the ice, didnt even break out my studded tires last year... Any snomobilers pulling trailers with the MT's?

lamar_hunter:
