bfg all terrains

[GBranger04]

not too great in the mud because of the already mentioned cleanout. but as for deep snow i thought they were great, i did laps of a small motocross track in powder that was up to my bumper without getting stuck once.

yes a motocross track, no i didn't go fast enough to break anything and not even close to getting air.

Operator error.

Whaaaa? Wanna explain yourself some more there sparky?

I have 245/75-16's on my 99 4x4, they're great all around but the tread gets clogged up easily. They're great for anything but taking on a large mud puddle.

ill bet you 1000 dollars you can take any mud grip, yes mud grip tire of any brand and go further in the mud than you will with any BFG all terrain tire. im talking about on the same vehicle too. not some ranger with 31'' mudgrips going through a hole that someone with 38'' all terrains (being sarcasting on the size) went through.

A mud tire should do better in mud than a A/T and the A/T should do better on pavement than a mud tire.

I would love to snag a set of A/T's for that price for winter driving and long distance trips after I get the other engine in it to get rid of the radio drowning drone...

yea i was pointing it out a mud grip will do better than any A/T, because we got people saying they will go through more with their A/Ts

but mud grips are only good for one thing mud sooo really you can go more places with a bfg a/t

if you get a softer mud grip it will last you quite a while. even though i still think a worn out mud grip will still go through more than an all terrain.

I am wroking on my second set right now and i have got stuck yet. i give them a 8 out of ten manly cause when it comes to ice they lack grip. i have been in some deep stuff and they did just fine.(i live in illions to though) they are great in snow and mud i like a lot.

I think if you spend most of your time on pavement then all-terrains are the way to go. They're not very loud and tend to wear better than mud terrains. I really like my Destination AT's for these reasons. In the mud they leave much to be desired, though, for the same reasons as the BFG's.

I just put on a set of TSL radials and can't see myself doing any kind of serious wheeling without them. They are deafeningly loud on pavement (I don't go over 50 anymore LOL) but absolutely kick ass in any terrain. I have a hard time getting them to spin, even in mud and water. They handle pretty good on the road, too (believe it or not). I actually think my truck stays more 'planted' in curves with the TSL's compared to the AT's. The Destinations 'fold' more in curves compared to the TSL's, likely due to their softer, thinner sidewall.

** APPLAUSE ** well said sir.


All Terrain does not equal anything special terrain. The last set of Dunlap mudders I bought held up to about 4000 miles of street/gravel/wheeling. They were soft and did well in the desert mountains and what not. Sonja climbed liked a goat with them. However... they sucked on wet street and snow. Ever drive your rig with somebody you love? I wont risk that again. Most folk with KO's see 40,000 miles plus... Some even 70-80K. My F250 saw 20,000 with marginal wear when I sold it on KO's.



It's your money. Personally... I have KO's on my rig and can afford any tire I want.
