Had em on my '06 f-150, step brother and friend both have them on their silverados, and they love the tires, and they will be my next set too.

P.S. All three of us went to them from BFG KO T/A's because of the price, and are staying with them because of their quality and long life. AWESOME TIRE!

I don't have any good pictures for you but I've been running 275/70/18 AT2s for two years now on my 2010. I'm happy with them. They have around 13K on them and don't really show any wear. The only down side I've seen about these is that they can be hard to balance sometimes. I'd recommend them. Like others, I got them because at the time they were a lot cheaper than the BFGs.

I had Firestone Destination ATs on my 08 FX4 and they were a very good tires. They had great traction in snow and rain and held curves great. they are actually rated #1 on tirerack.com for their class category. They come in LT sizes but they do not carry the 50,000 mile warranty that the regular ATs carry. I'm glad that they come in the 20 inch size. Even being 20s they seem to have a fairly aggressive tread pattern inlike most other 20s. I'm planning on getting them when my Scorpions come to the end of their useful life. We have not had much snow in S.W. PA but the Scorpions seem to be handling what snow we have had. One great thing about the new F150s is it seems that they seem to have better control in slick situations. I did a couple of quick stops on some snow and ice in an empty parking lot to get a feel for what to expect. Even with the Pirellis it was difficult to get the ABS to activate. When it did activate, the truck stopped fairly quick. My 08 FX4 was not as good. It was a great truck but my 11 Lariat, with roll stability, traction, etc. makes the 11 a much safer truck to drive.

Awesome, thanks guys. What I'm hearing from you seems to match up with most of the reviews of these tires out there. That's great news, and I'll definitely be interested. Now watch, I'll end up getting some crazy ridiculous amount of miles out of those Goodyear AT/S and I'll have to wait forever to swap them out (which would be a first for me on a Goodyear tire, by the way).

Swap them out now and sell the Goodyears on craigslist.

I wonder how much I could get on Craigslist for them. I think the AT2s are backordered all over the place right now anyway (at least on TireRack and DiscountTireDirect), but that isn't a bad idea! Maybe when they are in stock again...

I know this thread is a couple years old, but im wondering if anyone who was running the AT2's are still running them?

Also, For those who posted that are using AT2's... are they 2 ply?


Thanks!
