Personally my favorite look for the Cherokee is the BFG All-Terrain-T/A-KO's. I plan on getting myself a set once I have the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$..... seems like that will never happen though, they are expensive.

Cause they look almost like my BFG gravel racing tires, that my car has.

F-ing weird...but it says on theyre website
  • "Delivers deceptively high levels of traction in both mud and silt"
I sure as Hell, wouldnt try these in the mud....

I think they look more like an AT, instead of an MT

When I think of an MT, I think of something like this, AT LEAST!
You know, something with knobbies all over it.


They look ALOT more like a Hard packed dirt racing tire, too me...which would be EXCELLENT for Rally!!



I like the Website too BTW! I'll be looking for some new wider wheels sometime soon, and youre close by too, which is really great!

the grabber at2's look like the bfg at's but i think a little more aggressive. and they work pretty good in mud and snow,as long as the mud isnt 3 feet deep,more like one and a half. your better off gettin the grabber at2's at around 120 bucks or less, a tire. i payed 115 bucks for mine though.
