    Point me in a good direction of some good deals on all terrain tires or mud. (285/65r18 or 285/70r18 or 275/70r18)

    If someone is interested in my all season road tires 275/65R18 Goodyear SRA WITH 90% I'll trade or sell. PM me (this isn't an official for sale thread, I'm putting feelers out). Open to full rim and tire trade

    I want a more aggressive look

    Been running the Renegade R7. Traction-wise: outstanding. Haven't found the goopy mud round these parts just yet, but they did well in some slick snow spots on the trails a few weekends back. I really enjoy the rock ejectors they've place in the treads too. The rocks and gravel come out nice and easy at low speeds. It's more like they fall out instead of getting tossed out. Haven't heard that annoying "clicking" sound on the pavement once.

    At very slow speeds on pavement (coming to a stop for instance) you can feel the lugs coming into contact with the ground. It's expected, as this is no street tire. At higher speeds and highway, there's a slight hum. Also, expected, but not annoying. ClosIng the windows or turning up the tunes makes it go away. Haha. Very solid ride on pavement as well. No wandering. Pretty happy so far and for $900 a set of 4, I really can't complain.

    FWIW

    It's tough... I currently have a sissy all season tire Goodyear wrangler SRA don't get me wrong it could be worse like Dunlop tires... I kinda like it but I see you big dolla guys rocking nobbies and it makes me want them. But overall rating is stout on my current tires...

    What is ya'lls HONEST opinion on my current tire. RIGHT NOW after looking at rigs on here it would be an impulse buy so all else fails get I sight

    I'm with you, Tim. I have the factory Michelins on mine and I want to (need to before winter) upgrade to the Duratracs. You can't take the money with you, do it!

    Did a bunch of research, and ended up with BFG KO2's and am extremely happy with them throughout the wide range of weather in CO. Plus, they're quiet on dry pavement.

    Yep...very impressive shoes. Snow, rain, and dry roads - I'd give them a 9 across the board so far...only because I have no idea what a 10 would be, but these are rock solid.

    Cooper St Maxx. Ran them on my Tacoma with no issues. Going to get them again when my new truck comes in.

    I'm considering the ting the Falken ATs. I'm a bfg guy for the last 15 years, but the prices keep going up. 1100 for tires was my last donation to BFG for Tacoma tires.

    Sucks.... 1100 is the norm for 285/70 tires that I like... This is my frugal side making it hard to bite the bullet and buy

    I had wrangler duratracs on my Tacoma they were awesome. I wanted to try the goodyear bfg ko2s with my tundra and they are also awesome. I do not recommend hankook dynopro atm rf 10 they were a horrible tire I had them on my Dakota back in the day.

    I've heard nothing but good things about all the ATs mentioned so far but I have direct experience with running the Goodyear DuraTracs in 35s (on 17s) for 50k miles. They wear well, weren't noticeably loud, performed great offroad, and had a good sidewall.

    Disclosure: I ran them on my previous rig, which was a FJ Cruiser, but wheeled the hell out of them.

    If Duratrac's came in a 295/70R18 and didn't cost a ton more I'd get them in a heartbeat. Problem is they only come in a 325/65R18 for a 35" tire and cost around $1500 a set. I've heard nothing but good things.

    I've got the Cooper S/T Maxx on a Tacoma and love them but I'm leaning to the Falken Wildpeak AT3W for my 06 Tundra DC....for no other reason than $.

    Check out Hankook DynaPro ATM.

    They work great, a little louder than stock craptastic tires, and are usually at a great price. 750.00 for all four at Discount Tire.

    I've generally found the expression "you get what you pay for" holds true with tires.

    Spent a ton of dough in an attempt to save some dough on tires for my Vette. After two short-lived sets - I ponied up for the higher costing ones all my research pointed to from the beginning, and have been happy ever since. Research pointed me towards KO2's and one other tire - bought the KO2's and have been real happy with them, and skipped the added cost and headaches of trying to save money or dealing with an inferior product. YMMV...

    It's funny that it takes a complete stranger to remind me of the words I normally live by. Thanks for reminding me before I spend money and am unhappy until I spend more money on what I wanted in the first place. I know this may sound condescending, but I'm serious.

    I'm buying tires for my Lexus today, and out of the options available for that car, I have to go with Continental DWS06 instead of Michelin this go around. Been a long time since I've strayed from Michelin tires.
