So I realize tire threads have been done over and over here, but I didn't find exactly what I was looking for reading through them. Most are about AT or dedicated MT tires, and I did read them anyway. I've had 285/75R16 Goodyear MTRs on my 80 for the last 4 years or so, and gotten about 80k out of them. There's a lot of things I like about this tire, but the one thing I haven't like since day 1 is the road noise.
So now I'm looking for a new set of tires, and ATs just aren't going to cut it for what I do. Even though this is my DD, I'm not willing to compromise that much off road. So no BFG ATs, Nitto ATs, or Bridgestone Revos -
The list:
BFG MT KM2: Seem to be what I'm leaning towards, reviews are good and will be good in mud and rocks I play in. Anyone have these on an 80 yet?
Toyo MT's: Hear mixed results on these though I feel they will be good around here offroad, any tips on road noise?
Cooper Discovery STT: Read good things about road noise and traction, but bad things about wear. Anyone want to chime in?
Goodyear MTR: Great tires, but not going with another set due to road noise that started loud and has only gotten worse.
Not going with Trxxus or Cepek's since I'll be DDing this rig, just want the best off-road performance I can without totally sacrificing on road.
Thoughts?
Thanks!
