3rd Generation Best A/T Tires

I have a 98 Limited and my tires are at the end of their life. In your opinion what was your best A/T tire? I have owned BFG A/T's which were awesome but I'm trying to decide if I should go with something different or stay the same. I have heard good things about Yoko's. Also what are your opinion's on some all season tires?

Really this is going to come down to whatever you like. I've heard nothing but good about the BFG A/Ts. Yoko's are good tires too but they are expensive. For more of a street tire the Geolanders are good. If you are looking for a good deal you could try these. I haven't but I plan on using this company when I get my next set. $90 a tire can't be beat!

I have used Firestone tires on my car and they were great. Here is the good comparison chart from tirerack for A/T tires and you can pick one based on your needs (road type, conditions, comfort, etc.).

I have Geolanders on my 98 limited 4x4 and they are wearing great and even used them on the mountain roads going up wet inclines with no problems several times.

Wet west will want some with great wet traction. Heard good things about General Grabbers for the $$.
