My Yukon Denali is just about worn through its set of Dueler H/T Alenzas.

I want something aggressive but not overly aggressive to where they are loud and rough. I'm thinking about getting some BFGoodrich Rugged Terrains. They look like the perfect amount of aggressive for me. Or I guess I could just go with BFG A/T's and never buy a set of tires again. And FWIW, these will be mounted on 20 inch rims. Here's a comparison of the two:

It was worth mentioning because I'm not sure if the standard Yukon comes with 20s.

I'm assuming you like them?

They're awesome, I've got 35k miles on them and they look brand new. I rotate them every other oil change.

Quiet highway ride? That's not the #1 priority but it's up there.

Had great luck and very good mileage with some terra grapplers. Had about 40k mikes on em when I sold the truck and nobody even hinted that they were worn. If I remember correctly you have a rounded body style (05-07) if that's true the biggest you can go is the 295 width. They were 33.1 or something like that on my 05 Z71.

Mines a 2010, so the '07-'13 generation, IIRC.

But I wouldn't mind going up in width/height slightly. The wheel wells look pretty hollow. I would prefer no rubbing though.

I would go with the rugged terrains. A/Ts would look funny on a Denali.

Those aren't bad looking but I wonder how quality compares from BFG to Cooper.

You've ridden in my truck. I would say it's quiet though.

We need a sticky for the most recommended A/T and M/T tires. Gonna be switching out my BFG A/T's for a true mud tire next month is why I say this and will probably be asking. The Nittos look pretty sweet.

They do. But I'm one of those weird white-letters-out kind of guys. Wish they had those...



EDIT: +1 for your sticky idea.

Just something else to keep clean IMO. I don't mind the look though, especially on a dark truck
