real quick Nitto/BFG noise question

are the 285/60/18 Terra Grapplers and BFG TKO's pretty quiet on the highway?
I'll be doing ALOT of driving and have never owned this type of tire.

Thanks all,
Edward

the BFGs are quite loud for an allterrain tire. i've never owned the terra grapplers so i cant comment on them. but the BFG noise is why i stayed away from them when shopping for tires the second time. another tire to consider is the goodyear silent armour

thanks for the help. If things work out right I just may have a set of TG's on my O6 2wd S-crew today. I already have a 2.5" AS lift on it thanks to the help from the group on this site

My BFG TA KO's were quiet too - and after 10,000 miles still felt brand new.

Cooper makes the Zeon LTZ all terrain in that size. They look aggressive and get great reviews and they are only like $150 each. I'd go with those. Here's a link:

My BFG AT's are real quiet on the highway, I also have some Toyo AT's with close to the same tread design as the Nitto's and they are real quiet on the road also. The Nitto terra grappler is a great choice and they look good too!
