Do you offroad alot? How much treadlife do you expect? Road noise? Ride quality?

I like the BFG ATs and the Hankook Dynapros alot. Both are aggressive enough for offroad, quiet enough for me on, and last forever if rotated right.

Definitely look at the USA built Cooper Tires. I have LTZ's on my Truck and
for both on & off road performance, they can't be beat! Once you own Em,
you will understand 'Why' they are the best kept secret out there!

The Cooper Zeon LTZ's are great on and off the road.

I don't do alot of off-roading it's prov 70-30 on road off road. I love BFG All terrain that's what im leaning toward. Just wanted to get some other suggestions. How many miles if rotated right should I expect on the BFG's?

If you dont spin em, slide em, or stop em, you will definetely reach 50k. Rotate more often and in a diverse pattern and you should be able to get 60k out of em.

Redneck,

What size are those and did you level the truck? I had the Cooper's on my Dodge (275/60/20) and loved them, but I had one tire wear really bad. Only got about 30K from them, however when I traded the Dodge for the FX4 the shop said my alignment was off pretty bad. So I suspect that was the issue, i'm debating on what tires I want now...had my mind set on BFG 275/65/20 but at $300+ compared to $240 for the Cooper's it's a toss up, then there's the Federal MTs at $200 for 33x12.50x20.
