Suggestions???

If any of you guys have any of these can you post a picture



BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM2 LT265/70R17 31.7" 10.7"

Firestone Destination M/T 265/70R17 31.9" 10.7"

Hankook Dynapro MT LT265/70R17 31.9 10.7
 
I personally HIGHLY suggest General Grabber AT2. My whole family has them and not had 1 problem EVER. The tread just does not disappear. My mom has them on her 2009 Nissan Xterra (on her second set now), I have them on my 2003 Sport Trac, and my brother has them on his jeep. Absolutely phenomenal tire, very quite, rugged, looks great, dependable and reliable. Again it's my personal opinion but I do hear very good things about the BFGoodrich All-terrain tire as well.[Broken External Image]:
 
I really liked my KM2s. I can post a picture if you like but they were 35x12.5; not exactly what you're looking for. Of the ones you posted, the KM2 would be my first recommendation and the Nitto as the second. Is there a reason all of them are the MT except the Nitto; would you consider the Nitto Mud Grappler? They howl like mad and don't last but they seem to be loved by those that get them.



That said, I like the Treadwright Guard Dogs I have now even more, especially considering the price difference. I have a hard time thinking I'll go with anything other than Treadwright if their quality and price remain consistent.
 
no reason for having all m/t's haha didnt even notice. Just narrowing down my top picks for new tires and these where my favorites. Just wanted to get some tracies opinions/view points
 
I was just wondering because you had MTs listed and the Grabber all terrains are getting pimped out.



Nitto is a Toyo company (very good!!!) and are made in Bartow, Georgia. Support your local economy. We have Nittos on the Edge and love them.

I am on my second set of BFG 265/65/18 T/As on my '07 Trac and have used them on just about every 4x4 Ford I have ever owned dating back to at least the early '80s. I had the dealer put them on my Trac before I took delivery in Jan '07. The first set lasted about 65k miles and the truck just turned 90k a few weeks ago.

I put a set of Goodyear Wrangler SilentArmors on my 02 Trac just over a year ago, and love them: good traction in wet (lots of that in Seattle), great in snow (I'm a skier), and quiet (as advertised). Bought them at Discount Tires.



The set I bought was made in Canada - I've been trying to buy American whenever possible, but in this case "North American" worked for me, especially considering that my wife's Canadian born.
 
I second the General Grabber AT2. I run them in a 265/75/16 for the past 2 years and they are a great all around tire. Snow, ice, and rain they run good. Excellent treadwear and reasonably quiet. Bought tire and rim combo from Tirerack.
