Need Quick Advice on Tires

[XXXR]

Guys - I'm getting a set of doughnuts in about an hour. I should have made my mind up, but I have not.

Here are the choices:
BF KO's 185/75/16
BS Dueler Revo AT 185/75/16

I like the LOOK of the BF's, but I keep seeing that the Revos are better all around. Any experience out there?

Running half and half onroad offroad.

Thanks!

More offroad, long tread life, proven over 10 years, (better looks imop if that's what you're after) = BFG
Less noise, Prob good tread life as well, better road manners but still decent for offroad = Revo

Neither one is a mud tire.


Call you gotta make yourself and a debate thats been hashed out before.


Pssst. It's 285/75/16 (didn't want them to laugh at you at the tire shop)

From my experience the Revo's shed mud better, and perform much better in snow and rain than the BFG's. If you have snow, I wouldn't think twice about the Revos. I love mine. Rotating 5 tires I expect to get 50k miles out of them.

I was hoping they made the 185 size. I like the washer effect. (joking, that was a typo) I gotta ask... do you all have any pics running either tire?

No Experisince with BFG's. I have had my Revo's for close to 20K miles and they wear very well. You cannot go wrong with them. Just as capable offroad as the BFG's.... and less noisy too.

Ron/Mars - pic of the rig? MoJ - what are you running? Mudders?

I am in the same boat, I was considering the BFG AT's, Revo's, and the Nitto TGs but I think I am going to go with the Cooper STT. I drive a lot on road, but would like the extra traction for the areas that I hunt and fish. Seem to be about the same price as the BFG's.

I have run BFG M/T, BFG A/T, and even the TRXus MTRs, but I like my Goodyear Wrangler MTRs the best so far. I have run all these in 285/75/R16 size. I also found the BFG A/T to be a really quit tire that has long life and can do pretty well on moderate trails if you are insisting on AT. I don't know what REVOs are. Who makes that?

A smart person would have taken a camera on last weekend's snow adventure. I have driveway shots instead.

Had both, liked the revos better,

Thanks! My guy at Goodyear got a pretty smart deal on the BF's... 168 per. I had to make a rash decision about an hour ago. Thanks to all. I'll post results later. (mileage, handling etc.)
