Hey all,
Currently running 37x12.5R17 Geolandar MT+ (G001's). They have been excellent on trail, both doing simple stuff in the San Juan mountain range, as well as more rough stuff like Moab. However, they are very noisy on road, and tend to wander a bit, and under 20MPH there is much vibration from the lugs. Now that my trail partner bought a new business, we dont get out much at all anymore, and the LX is pretty much just a daily road driver now. I am looking to replace the G001's with some new tread that is more pavement friendly. I am hoping I can get some input from you guys on the following three tires. I am debating between the BFG All-Terrain TA K02, Mud-Terrain KM3, and the new version Geolandar MT G003's. I want to keep the off road capability high...primarily snow and standard mountain trails. Think Colorado's San Juan mountain town roads during the winter, and their off road trails in the summer. This is my favorite place and I try to visit there frequently. This is why I am thinking of sticking with Mud Terrains. However, with the trails not being as aggressive as say Moab, and with on road driving being 99% of the miles, I am thinking of the All-Terrains. For those that have the All-Terrains, how well do they do on trail? I am really looking for a much quieter tire, with better road manners, but I dont want to get stuck somewhere offroad...even though I have full lockers so it would be very rare.
