best all terrain tire??

BFG All-Terrain A/T KO

Firestone Destination A/T

Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armor

Pirelli Scorpion ATR

Which one do you guys suggest? Also anyone running 285/70/17 of any of these with a leveling kit?

Thanks for your help!

Out of those, the BFG AT KO followed by the Goodyears.
The Pirelli ATR's would not even be a choice for me.

pawpaw were you able to fit those tires without any rubbing? do you only have a leveling kit or do you have a lift as well? Thanks for the picture!

Well I'll throw my vote for the GY silent armor out there. I've had mine on for about 50k and they look great! They still have quite a bit more tread left. I've taken them through mud, sand, rock, snow, and they worked great. Barely used 4x4 when I was in Minnesota for the winter. On the freeway they ride great, and are very quite for an all terrain tire.

I don't have a lot of miles on them, nor had the chance to try out their traction in off road situations, but I love my Firestone and their on road manners.

No rubbing with these wheels 17x8 with 5 1/2 inches of BS and yes the truck only has a 2 1/2" leveling kit.
