Looking for anyone with experience with these tires to fill me in about

1) Noise. Relative to something like the BFG All Terrain KO's

2) Traction in rain and snow

3) Tread life

I am looking at a set of 35x12.5R16s for my 2001 SuperCrew with 4" suspension lift. I am also considering the BFG's and the Yokohama Geolander MT's

By the way I have not settled on my lift yet so I would welcome any thoughts/input on Rancho, Trailmaster, Superlift, Pro Comp, & RCD.

Thanks in advance,

Andrew

 

OK...I USED TO RUN SSR'S. STILL GOT THEM MATTER OF FACT. THEY ARE NOT TOO NOISY....NOT A/T'S THOUGH. NOISIER THAN M/T'S. THEY ARE OUTSTANDING IN MUD AND SNOW. RAIN HAS ALOT TO BE DESIRED THOUGH. THEY AREN'T BAD IN RAIN THOUGH. I HAD MINE ON 31,000 MILES AND I STILL HAVE 1/4" OF TREAD LEFT. ONCE THEY GET DOWN ON TREAD DEPTH, THEY WILL SHIMMY AND SHAKE AND VIBRATE THE HELL OUTTA YOUR TRUCK. THEY LIKE TO SHOW THEIR TRUE SUPER SWAMPER ROOTS!!!!! I LIKE THEM. LOOK VERY AGGRESSIVE. SOUND MEAN TOO. I TRAVEL ALOT AND NEEDED A GOOD HANDLING AND WEARING TIRE. ONE THAT IS SILENT TOO. IF YOU DON'T TRAVEL ALOT I WOULD GET THE SSR'S. MY NEXT CHOICE FOR TIRES, ONCE I PUT ON MY RANCHO LIFT..(WHICH IS IN SEVERAL BOXES IN MY GARAGE) WILL PROBABLY BE MICKEY THOMPSON BAJA CLAWS. I HERE THEY ARE MAKIN' A 38 NOW. GOOD LUCK. TRY TO STICK WITH RADIALS.
