- Its probably better to be self deprecating than self defecating.
I had kenda klever m/t's for about 25k before switching to the grabber atx's I have now.
The kendas were super affordable when I bought them.. 255/75/17s were 570$ shipped to my door. Noisy, definitely needed rotations every 5k, and I hated them in the snow.. however they were great on loose stuff, didn't chuck too many rocks, and they'd definitely make it the advertised 50k miles.
The grabbers are.... grabbers
They roll much smoother than the kendas, they'll wear better, they'll be better in snow, and they'll be 2x as much to replace

Same here. Mine were a bear to balance but otherwise great.

On my third set of Khumos.
I like Generals AT and MT tires.
Have a set of AT2s.
They were replaced with the AT3s (less aggressive then the AT2) and ATX (a MT tire, more like the AT2)
mastercraft tires are decent too. Have had a few various models on street stuff .
I love the cooper discoverers I have, they are a mild AT. Great in snow and ride really smooth.
I think I want a set of cooper cobras for my mustang when I get the engine back in.
