255....325.....close enough.

I have those tires in the genuine wheels without fender flares...

THE BEST TIRE AND SIZE IN EVERYTHING!

I don't live everytime in rocks, mud, snow or street... It's the best ALL TERRAIN... of the MUD TERRAIN's...

BFG MT's are horrid compared to the newer breed of MT's in all terrain capability. Might be fine in FL where you are focused on treadlife with a consistent climate year round, but in the snow I am focused on my actual life, and those tires suck beyond the ability to describe in words. OK, I can describe it. Don't buy them if stopping is a desired part of your driving experience.

They are also not the best size. A skinny tire sucks for a rock crawler on a big truck like an 80. Debates about contact patch are fine, but we don't get a flat contact patch. I've run a 33x10.5 BFG in serious offroad use (rock crawling). Nowhere near enough tire for serious rock work on a large vehicle. They are an equivalent in capability to a 32x11.5. Not big enough for a smaller rig like a Cherokee, much less an 80.

What other MT's and sizes have you run to shout out this claim of best of breed?

Those Digger Lugz are good at Diggin' up old threads at least

Id rather have Buckshot mudders than BFG M/Ts.
