BFG Rugged Terrains?
Anyone running these? Seem to be a decent tire that replaced the 'Rugged Trail' Light Truck tire line. Studying reviews for the last six months and they're mostly favorable. However, as we know, hauli...

Check out the Cooper Discoverer ATP tires, I just bought these for my Jeep Wrangler and they are great tires, very quiet and grip the road very well, cost was very good, cheap compared to Goodyear Wrangler tires..
The silica-based compound is designed to create a long lasting tread life for the Cooper Discoverer ATP tires, 55000 mile tread life..

I went with these. Thanks timmac. The BFG's were (are) on a national back order. Nobody had more than two in stock and no clue when they would be.
So far, so good. Turns out that America's Tire sell the ATP's exclusively from Cooper. That's why they aren't listed on the Cooper website.
The ATP's were priced slightly less than both the AT3's (which I've found mixed reviews about) and the BFG's and have a slightly more aggressive, yet nicer looking tread pattern IMO.
ATP reviews seemed to be across the board positive. But, again, how many of those people haul a 3000lb.+ camper? Haven't put the camper on the truck to test them yet, but I like how they handle unloaded. Rides like an HT. They do not at all feel like an AT--at least at this point in the mileage life.
Total OTD was $921, mounted and balanced (not a RoadForce balance) with a $70 rebate that I probably won't get til who knows when. You never know with those rebate thingy's. Anyway, I'm happy. I'll post up how they do off-road, if I can ever get around to it.
