I have priced some general grabber at2.  235: $117 30: $116

Does anyone deal with Big O Tire? They produce a tire line up exclusively for there company and have an excellent off road selection with a killer warranty! BiG O also has over 550 stores accros North America so replacements would never be a problem.

I looked a little after seeing some good reviews.  I was looking primarily at the Big Foot XT until I got a quote.... they wanted $200 a tire installed for 235/75 R15.  For that much I'll get a Wrangler MT/R or BFG's.  I ended up with the Cooper STT... they rock 

I had Dayton MT's on my chev and they lasted 2 years with lots of on road and some off road driving but on a zuk or tracker im sure they would last a lot longer... they are fairly less inexpensive also... i would give them a lookin at

The BFG AT is a great all around tire leaning towards a road tire. They will ride good and give you a long life as long as you rotate and balance regularly. If you are going to be on muddy trails/roads much you may want to the the BFG MT's. They are a decent riding tire that will give you better trail performance and a shorter life.

If you are mainly snow and road, the AT will do great for you.

Just got my General Grabber AT2s installed today. They ride quieter, smoother and seem more grippy(word?) than than the BFG ATs and the tread looks a wee-bit more agressive, cheaper too

The only question left is how tough the side walls will be. I don't want to be the crash test dummie for that.

I'm planning on getting 235/70R16 general grabber AT2's. glad to hear they work well. I was noticing the slightly more agressiveness apearance and the outer part of the tread looks like it's not so wide open and I'm hoping that aspect helps them last longer. I was told by the dude at the store that they should last a little longer than BFG at's.

That was the thing with Big O when I lived in SoCal.  They had some nice tires but for the extra they wanted for their "excellent warranty" I could have gotten much larger tires.  Ended up at Discount Tire.

Maplebar, where'd you get the Coopers?  When I lived there, 97-01, you couldn't find a Cooper tire dealer without going to Escondido.

Not to mention Big O is NOT country wide.  There's big sections of the country that don't have Big O dealerships...so plan for that.






I'll say it again, if you want to hit the mud SKIP AT's.  Most AT's will suck in the mud within a few feet.
