Been going back and forth on Michelins of BFGs
BFG AT KO2
or Michs.

Or any luck with another brand like Nittos or Cooper?

I have the Michelin at2 on my tundra. They have been a great tire. They don't look like much but they have been great. I don't do any hardcore off roading. But I've been in mud decent amount of snow and they have never let me down. But I also wouldn't hesitate to get the bfg also I have them on my work truck which is a 2500hd with a heavy utility box full of supplies and tools and they have also never let me down. As for looks the bfg look better. You can't go wrong with either. Depending on how you use them you will more than likely get more miles out of the Michelins.

The BFGs look tough and aggressive. The Michs are the more practical choice.
I'm in my truck 8+ hours a day. I just dont like the SUV look the OEM tires have but they been great.

I have the Cooper stt on my half ton Chevy. Just under 20k and they're pretty well shot. I will be going back to Toyo open country mt . More money but the last set I got 48k

I love the Toyo Open Country ATII tires. 45k on my current set on my F150 and plenty of tread left.

I also have them on my full-size Bronco and had them previously on an explorer and superduty. Overall no complaints with Toyo's and they are made in the USA.

I absolutely love the Michelin LTX AT2. I've got the 275-65-20 in 10 ply and they are awesome. I drive aggressively and I've never gotten less than 80k on these tires. We run them on our other trucks in the fleet and one guy got 120k!

They are expensive but they are THE best general purpose truck tire available.

I've also wore our several sets of the BFG AT KO2. They are a great tire but don't last as long and make more noise. If you need the BFG traction, then get those. if not, go with Michelin.

I agree with @joeymt33 that these are awesome tires... I have 71K on mine right now and they are still running strong. When I wear these jokers out, I will replace with the same!

Been super happy with my Duratracs. Pain to get balanced but they've been great in everything, snow, ice, rocks, sand and light mud. Roads are super icy here and pulling my trailer up steep icy hills has been a non issue. And they are a winter rated tire that can be studded if you're into that. Run 275/70/18 on my 14 sierra. 30k with very little wear showing.

I'm leaning towards the Mich's. As good looking as the BFGs are they offer no tread warranty. The Mich's offer 60k.
I Cooper open country? MTs and they were wasted at 25k
