Can't go wrong with the BFG AT's.

Maybe look at the Pro Comp Xterrains as well. Not quite an MT, but more aggressive than most AT's. I think that's what Timgco has on his (Kira's ) H3. He can give you an idea on how they perform.

Default Re: new tires

did the 'D' load range just come to market? they have had this size for years in the AT and MT. maybe they only had 'E' before.

they need to make the Krawler in more sizes but you can't go wrong with anything by bfg

Actually, the "E" just came out. Same for the 265.

you can do 33's in a 17" rim or 35's on the stock 16's.

Depends on the tire model and the rim width. Try the BFG tables(specs.)

For these conditions the BFG AT KO rocks. I'm running this tire in a 315/75R16 on the OE rims and they are great. The only place I'm not happy with them is in the mud, and you don't have much of that.

Thats been my experience as well, BFG T/A KO is best for the West.
