BFG TA KO2
Have these on my '99 Ram 35k, have them on my '04 Jeep Unlimited 40k and just put a new set on my '06 Jeep X. With faithful tire rotation and correct air pressure I was able to get 80k out of the last set.
Tried Toyo and Mickey Thompson but didn't get the mileage I have gotten with the BFG. That's just me others may have had different experiences.
The newer sidewall design does look more aggressive.

I have some Falken AT. I like them so far. Ride good, no road noise, good off round grip without being too aggressive.

I currently run cooper stt pros. But the best ride/life I've had in a tire are those cooper at3s. But they are not super aggressive

Might need to do that. Going to cost me about $1300 for the BF Goodrich TA KO2's installed.

Depends what you want. I personally prefer longevity over looks.

Toyo Open Country AT2’s will get you 60k, while BFGs will fall short of 40k.

Hankook dynapro ATM are good tires too and will also get you 50+.

I've run these on several trucks, and my current set has about 40k miles on them. They will probably easily go another 15k.

Never had a traction issue on the road or pulling the boat out of the water.

If you're looking for good, long lasting tires, I'd look into the Nitto Terra Grappler G2s. They're a 10ply 3/4 ton tire that will last approximately 60k miles on a 1/2 ton truck.

Not only can you see reviews for tires .. you can input your vehicle and see what each tire looks like mounted.

I'm going to give the new Nitto Ridge Grapplers a shot here in a month or two. Seem like a good cross between light mud and A/T tires.

Anyone running them yet?

Tires are tires.
Just get some used ones for $45 each.
Nobody cares even if you have 4 different ones.
