Tire Choice 33s
#26
They have a little hum to them, but WAY less than a mud tire will. I wouldn't call it obnoxious by any means.. I'll get pictures later this afternoon. It's raining out, i'll pull inside and get some..

I just got them a couple weeks ago in a 305/70/R16.. which is about a 33x12.5.. Love them so far.. I'm voting for the Generals..

id say that the bighorns are louder than my MC's are, ive only heard one set though. i was going to buy them instead of the MC's i have, but then i got a good deal on these.
when you come up next we will take Sabrina's Jeep for a ride and you can hear them. When i had them in 33's they were the same noise as the Jeep is, which is quieter than my truck
Sport Kings FTW!! both vehicles

you need to stop comparing a mud terrain to an all terrain..
what do you want?
do you care if its a little louder?
-if so, stop lifting and lower it back down.. hell buy a Lexus or something
a lifted truck deserves an aggressive tire.. thats just me, a 33 is as big as i would go for an AT, but if i got an AT it would be a bfg..

My truck is 2wd so either way I don't have a lot of traction. I like the Bighorn for looks, but also performance. I spend 95% of driving on the road. That's the biggest reason an A/T would make sense for me. Also it snows a pretty decent amount here and my truck needs all the help it can get in snow. The Grabber AT2 is one of the highest rated "snow" tires that's not actually a snow tire.
Matt, just calm down. I don't wheel much, if any. That should change once this happens, as the Dunes will be my first trip.
As far as everyone else's posts, I think I want to see all of them in person before I decide.
Bighorn PROS: Aggressive tread pattern, great looks, great reviews CONS: Noisy, shallow siping
Grabber AT2 PROS: Great in snow and wet weather, quiet, great looks and reviews CONS: Have had tread separation issues in past, its an AT
Sport Kings PROS: Siped, tread pattern between mud and at CONS: Few people run them so I don't have a lot of info

We'll just have to see what they look like this coming week so I can make a decision. It's still a very hard decision though, because I like all of them equally, but for different reasons.
As far as off the road capability, I wouldn't mind having good traction off road, but since I drive more on the road it's sensible to buy an AT especially because of the snow and rain we get here.
