what do you think...the tread pattern rocks, and theyre pretty cheap...worth it?

Those seem pretty nice and the price is hard to beat. Even if you only get 20-25k out of them you still are probably good. With the siping they might do pretty good in the snow also. Might be alittle noisy though with that huge lug gap on the edge.

Your thread really caught my interest. I've been thinking about the BFG MTs but for a daily driver I'm not sure if I want the noise and the rain/snow/slush performance of a MT. The BFG AT doesn't come in 255/85/16, which I'd like to try. Also, their MT sort of looks pre-siped to me. That might be good.

I found their web site and they make an AT that does come in that size. I thought I'd share it just in case you want to learn more about either tire.

I searched on TTORA and Pirate 4x4 but I didn't come up with much. There is one guy on TTORA that seems to like the MTs you mentioned.

Not worth it.

Check local tire shops. Dunlop Mud Rovers for $100 each mounted in that size.

Once you pay the $100 shipping it's not worth it.

A guy on Yotatech.com said they are a division of Firestone or Bridgestone. I like em. Im thinking they may be my next tire, and like Erin said, even if they dont last all that long, they werent that expensive to begin with.
