How to obtain the BFG AT T/Ako 285/70R17
You'll get the run around no matter who you call, unless you can deal directly with a distributor, even the TireRack or 1010Tires.com. The only way to get this tire is to have your dealer call this number: 1-800-847-3435 and have them order stock number: 57974. They are available all over the country except for the Missouri Area.

Ordered them through a friend that runs a Sears Auto Center. I had just ordered a set of Michelins from him yesterday and changed that once I found out this size was available. He said that once he was armed with this information he was able to call their help desk and get a Sears stock number. He wasn't aware that this tire was available yesterday either, if so I would have ordered it. I got the whole package, liftetime balance, alignment, road hazard etc. It was about 9 C notes. We'll see what they look like next week.

No kidding, sorry, but I'm glad I'm not the only one. I tried all last weekend to get a hold of them, not happening. When I have cash in hand, things will change though. I'm still torn between the 285 BFG, and the 33" Pro Comp though. I checked out some 33x12.50R16.5's yesterday in the BFG AT's and they are freaking HUGE!!! I love the way the BFG's treads are so wide, but I wonder how the 285 will compare to the 33's.

You have to look at the partial pick of the tire pretty close but you can see the size.
