Tire Choices

Im going to be getting some new tires soon and wondering what you guys think.

General Grabber AT 2
BFG AT
Maxxis Buckshots
BFG MT


I want a tire that will handle well on and off the road. I know the MT's wont handle as well as the AT will.

Any other recommendations would be greatly appreciated also.

If you're looking for all around performance the BFG AT is the only way to go. I had a set of 315 70 17s on my truck and the traction was amazing. very lilttle road noise and an extremely deep tread. Personally I think general tire is a crap company sorry if i **** anyone off. Maxxis buckshots look like some amazing tires for the price but they have a very limited size selection considering most of us have 17 inch rims. As far as the BFG MTs they are an amazing tire and i think its called the mt km2, its like a reworked version of the original mt just looks plain badass but i have zero experience except what i have seen from some of my friends who have them on their trucks. Another option that i will bring up is the hankook dynapro at. I just ordered a set for myself to replace the BFGs, I figured I would try something differenent and with all the research I have done I couldnt find any negative feedback. But anyway my friend I am sure there will be more people chiming in, especially recommending the BFG ats.

I must say, I have the 275/65/18's in the buckshot. They have about 20-22K on them and are about half tread, they aren't loud on the highway, and work excellent off-road, and the price wasn't bad. The only reason I have to get rid of them is because I need BIGGER!!
