    as having the AT2's, I vote other. Those grabbers sucked, big time. But, I suppose it all depends on what your looking for in a tire.

    BTW, those AT2's are now on my buddies liberty, he hates them. He says it feels like he is driving on a factory street tire. Said they suck balls in the snow.

    Firestone destination....What model? AT or MT? I loved my MT's they went through anything. Only downfall is they dont have much siping so they suck on wet pavement.

    For an All terrain tire, I would say BFG AT or Falken's rocky mountain ATS

    Im running the destination AT's on my F-150 and they are unstoppable in the snow and are also great in the rain. I was a BFG only guy until I bought these Destinations now I wont go back. The BFG AT's are great tires but arent worth the extra $400 a set over the Destinations especially since the Destinations out perform the BFG's. Check tire rack and read the reviews in the AT segment, the destinations come in at #1, Grabbers at #5 and the BFG's at #10 in ratings.

    I guess the difference for me was partly that I got my bfgs for such a good price. I think you're right though I might not have bought them new

    It might not be till next year. I Hate my GY Wranglers with a passion but I want to get the most out of them even though they have no thread to begin with. I priced 4 Firestone 235/75/r15 and they are about $700
     
  15. I saw the 31x10.50R15s for like $592, plus $93 shipping. So yeah, like $700 lol

    Yeah my $700 doesnt even include balacing and installation :(
     
  17. My girlfriend's dad's uncle owns a garage and he can mount and balance them for me.

    my dad could do it for me he had the machine, but he doesnt :(. but its normally a small fee so it isnt so bad
