I put BFG KO's 265/75R16's and am really impressed for the winter driving.

even on snow and ice they are really good, not blizzak good but better than one would expect for how aggressive they are.

anyhow thats my 02 cents .

cheers

Tell BFGoodrich!
They will only keep making them if we don't tell them how bad they suck. It's up to us.
Apparently BFG didn't learn anything from the Firestone fiasco.
Typical american company.

I bought the Revos. Best tire in it's class for the money IMO.

BTW.....the rugged trails don't burn well without kerosene.

 

Get the BFGs! My cousin has them here in Boston and it snowed here too yesterday and they worked really well on the snow.

 

Currently sitting in my basement, waiting for someone on Craig's List to email me/call me and take them off my hands.

BTW - snow is coming down pretty heavy right now....fun drive up to the mountains tonight, the BFG M/T's are going to get a workout!!! :clap:

 

I "sold" my Rugged Trails to the tire store I bought the my ATs from. They gave me $70 credit per tire for the OEM tires with 300 miles on them. I was shocked that they gave me that much for those tires. I was expecting $30-50 per tire.

 

i traded in my duelers when i got my bfg ta k/o's earlier this year with around 10K on them through discount tire. so far i really like the k/o's (picked them over the revo's). good luck!

 

+1 for bfg's

 

sold mine to some poor bastard for $250 on craig's list.

 

Getting the Revo's installed tomorrow morning, my rugged trails have 22K on them and I could get another season out of them. I just need something better especially with winter here in PA. Better to be safe than sorry. I will probably keep the rugged trails for a yard sale in the spring.

 

I had the Revo's for 35k miles and hated them, noisy, wouldnt ever balance until they replaced two of the tires and didnt wear as long as they should have. Ph eya, and they were noisy, especially once they got some miles on them.

I would stick with the BFG's.

 

I was thinking about buying the Michelin LTX A/T2 tires 265/75/16. Anythoughs on those ?

Thanks

 

BigO XTs

Here is a tire to consider. (Big O Big Foot XT) I have not been able to find anyone who has tried them but the siping and aggresive tread may make it a good all around tire. Has anyone tried these?

 

i got 50K miles out of my rugged trails, never had any problems with winter driving, rain driving, dry driving. of course, when it got really icy, i would slide a little bit, but it was never really bad.

now i have the all terrains and have yet to see any really slippery conditions with them yet. i expect them to provide better traction and wear hopefully just as long or longer.

Anyone ever run the Michelin LTX A/T2 tires ,265/75/16 ? I will be buying new ones next month, I hope.

Thanks

 

I had the Michelin LTX A/T (predecessor to the LTX A/T2) on my T-100. Good tires all around. Unfortunately the A/T2's have been getting horrible reviews (ie TireRack). I noticed that Costco sells them, but leery about all the bad press. If you are a Michelin fan, check out the Michelin M/S. They've been getting good reports from other people on this forum...

Me, despite being a long term Michelin user, I'm going with the Revo's.

Good luck.

 

REVO!!!! I love mine so far. Best handling tire I've ever had in the rain. Don't know about snow since we get very little of it here in TN.

Also, if you check tirerack, you'll find that the Revo's are hard to beat. I like checking tirerack since actual customers review the tires.

 

Yeah I was looking at Tirerack and the Revos get better reviews. Also, when I was a member of NPORA (Nissan Pathfinder Off Road Association) he Revos was all anyone could talk about. But I guess it all depends on the vehicle as well. I'm thinking of the BFG's... I will throw the Rugged Trails on Craigslist tomorrow. I'm sure they should sell quick. Not every one can drop 700-800 for tires. $300 for local pickup should be a great deal for practically new tires..
