without knowing the price difference, help me decide which tire, the BFG All-terrain KOs or the General Grabber AT2. this is for a 99 dodge cummins 2500 4x4 truck wieghs 7600 lbs without me in it

 

I can't give you stats on the General Grabbers, but maybe this will help you on the other choices. I was surprised to find that the Firestone's beat the BFGoodrich's in EVERY SINGLE CATEGORY of the survey. But I was just throwing that into the mix. I see you're in Columbus, so you get snow, so the Goodyears may be a good fit...and they look GREAT.

The BFG all terrains are a good tire and I had good luck with them, I haven't ran the general grapplers so I don't know how they wear

 

Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armor, excellent all-round tire. I've now run 3 sets of these.

Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac, a new line from Goodyear. I will probably try these next. I have heard only 2 bad things about them. 1, slight (SLIGHT) increase in read noise. 2, softer then the Silent Armors, therefore quicker wear.


I've never been a fan of BFG A/T's, always thought them to be over ratted.

 

BFG All Terrains are terrible in pretty much anything if you ask me whether its mud, snow, dirt, or ice. A buddy of mine had some on his 95 Chevy 1500 with a 6 inch lift and it couldn't go anywhere off road because it had hardly any traction. They did last forever though. I would go with some Goodyear Wranglers, Wrangler silent armors, or the Duratracs. I have heard that the sidewalls on the General Grabbers are absolutely worthless.

 

I've had the BFG's and will never do it again... they did last forever tho - one good thing about them... I LOVE LOVE LOVE my Toyo Open Country's...

 

Ive had really bad luck with the BFG's, been running Hankook ATM and had good luck with em.

 

wow im surprised at the negative feelings toward the BFGs, i have them on my truck currently, iv got 91,000 miles on them and now they are bout bald. Im just trying to decide if theres better or similar out there. my issue is i cant seem to decide whether the load rating difference is a concern. I guess i should clarify that my truck is mainly a gravel and paved road machine with dyno pulls and sled pulls and the occassional off road blast but thats rare. Im just wanting some type of tough all terrain thatll be decent off road, not looking for a mud terrain or anything. just wanting something thatll last at least 50,000 miles. thatd last me about 3-4 years. i need something thatll be decent in snow too.

 

I have Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armors on my Dodge and they are a wet dream in the snow

 

I have the General Grabbers - they suck with a capital S....
