If you have been happy with the BFG's so far, why change? You know, don't fix what aint broke. I have always had great luck with the BFG's myself, and have been told that the General's are just too soft for our trucks.

i ran nitto terra graps and liked them. they were good in sand and ok on mud....hooked real good on pavement. they didnt last as long as i would have liked but that was my fault i couldnt keep my foot out of it and spun the tires alot.

i tried michelin and they are the WORST tire ever made...after 20k they turned into an ht they had 0 claw.

i ran goodyears and had ok luck with them but i did a lift and wanted something more aggressive for the looks and my weekend wheeling

one u may look at that im running now is the interco ssm16. its really agressive but they are really well behaved on road and they are mean off road. so far ive got 10k on em and they look brand new.

I'm a Toyo fan. Open Country M/T on my F350 and W250. I've had the M55 before.

I like tires that are in the 3700-4000# weight class... all it takes is a good load of gravel or firewood and you've overloaded the garden-variety 235/85R16E tire (usually only 3042#)

imo, the best at ive been around is the hankook dynapro atm rf10

ive not heard anyone around that has them that has had any complaint. there a great at tire

i didnt like the bfg at and will never put a set on my vehicle again. my only experience is with used ones, 1/4 or less tread, and any time it would ran, it was like driving on ice

You have to find a Dealer but the "Big O" all terrain is the best tire for the money in my opinion. Lots of mileage, lots of siping for sticky grip, and the best warranty in the business. I have a set that are 13 YEARS OLD and still holding up a full size chevy van with fair tread left. I had them on a Blazer when I was 16 and tried my best to tear the hell out of them but they still look good.
