Tire Opinion
Time for a new set of tires, I currently have BFG All-Terrains. I like the tire a lot but I'm not crazy about paying $1,000 plus for a new set.
What's out there similar to the BFG AT that wont break the bank?

Re: Tire Opinion
Toyo AT-II, Nitto Terra Grappler, General Grabber AT2 are REAL similar to BFG's.

Re: Tire Opinion
I'm looking for some new tires for my truck also. The ones I'm looking at buying are Cooper Discover AT'3s. Saw some on a truck at work and they are rated really high by Consumer Reports. I got quoted $150 per tire at one place but haven't had a time to give a couple of other tire places a chance. Anybody else have these tires?
Re: Tire Opinion
Who quoted you that price? What size you looking at? That sounds like a good deal.

Got those put on my 05 z71 and they were great. Cost me 750 mounted balanced and an alignment at upton in Madison.

Re: Tire Opinion
I am due for new tires too. I have BFG TA's now with about 70K miles on them so it's hard for me not to go back with them.

Sounds like you got a fair shake but Upton's is a rip off IMO.bulldog ducker wrote:Muddy Boots wrote:I'm looking for some new tires for my truck also.

Re: Tire Opinion
I just put the AT3's on my tundra. ONly have about 2000 miles on them so far but they ride pretty good. I also bought them from Upton but only because they are close to my office for me to have them rotated and balanced when needed.

Re: Tire Opinion
My 18" 265 NTG's were $840 out the door last Oct.
Re: Tire Opinion
Thanks dudes, I'll check them out
Re: Tire Opinion
Check online too. I'm all about supporting local business but you an at least get them to price match. Www.discounttiredirect.com is where I got my last set of Nittos. Oh and Nitto / Toyo are made by the same company. Same compound and everything, so both brands are great tires.
