General Grabber AT/2 on my wifes Escape
4 Attachment(s)
These tires look a lot like BFG AT/KO's and even have the rim protector. Read about them in an offroad magazine and showed them to my wife since we were getting new tires and she wanted them. I actually showed her a few tires from the Tire Rack and she picked them out because they were aggressive looking, had a non-directional tread and enough siping.
She's starting to sound like one of us, lol! Anyway, here's what they look like. They are 235-70-16's and about 29" in diameter. About the same as stock Ranger tires. Didn't buy them at Tire Rack. It would have been $104 a tire shipped and a local vendor gave them to me for $109 installed and balanced. The Tire Rack isn't competitive sometimes. |
lookin good! when is the front and rear SAS happening?
|
I was told that if I wanted to live, I would not be modifying her suspension, or taking her Escape offroad.
She's not sounding THAT much like us! :wink: :crazy: |
Did I screw up that title or did it change, lol? I meant to type "General Grabber AT/2" but apparently I somehow inserted a "look" in there. I should have looked before I "looked"...
|
dang that would be a good project too. some 39.5" IROKs would work well ;)
|
I told her that, Zach: but she doesn't want to intimidate the other middle aged ladies, lol...
|
oh alright... lol dang
some guys at work were talking about those grabber tires. couple of them wanted them for their Heep, I heard they were good. I dont think I could ever go back to an all terrain tire. |
very nice... at least she now has a offroadish vehicle... or at least more so than the civic :crazy:

my wife also got a 05 escape and i think i am going to go a little wider of a tire maybe a 255/70/16 i was thinking just got to measure to make sure it wont scrup TOO bad haha
|

no prob and i remember reading in an offroad mag, not sure which, but they scored them just about the same as a BFG, just a lower budget one |

I've got grabbers on my Ranger and they have done better than the BFG's I had on before in every aspect on and off road.
