Default All Terrain Tires

Hi, I have a 1999 Cherokee with a 4.5 RE Suplerflex Kit on it. I want to run som all terrain tires but want to make sure I buy the right ones. I was running BFG M/T KM1's but I dont need that aggresive anymore. I was thinking about Yokohama Geolanders or BFG A/T KO's? Any ideas, i want to stay with something kind of aggressive.Also, 31's or 32's? I dont want to runn 33's again due to highway driving and stock gearing. Any info would be great

i've always had great luck with my BFG all terrains (knock on wood) and would recommend them to anyone. i'm also on my 3rd set now. i do a lot of highway driving too, so theyre great for on and off road uses.

General AT2's are a nice tire that's not pricey and pretty similar tread pattern to the BFG's. My neighbor has a set of Dick Cepek FCII's and he really likes them.

I just looked up those general at2s and they look sweet. Another tire I was looking at is the goodyear wrangler authority and for onlt $130 for 30x10.5 thats a good price.

I went through 4 sets of BFG A/T ko's... never had a complaint... low noise, good ride, last 60k miles if rotated on schedule.

If keeping the stock gearing, I would run 31's.

I put a set of goodyear wrangler duratrac on my xj. They are a combo at and mt tire. I love them. Rather quiet for how chunky they are.

I say BFG A/T's. My buddy just put Goodyear duratrac's on his and he really likes them. The Goodyears are probably a few bucks cheaper. I did however get like 100,000 miles out of my BFG A/T's and they weren't even gone.

bfg's all the way bought them for my Ram and have never wanted to switch back, also the bridgestone duelers (not sure which model) are pretty good as well
