General AT2's

I saw these tires first hand for the first time today. And with all the controversy over them i have to say i would run em. They do look more aggressive than the bfg's and at a better price i don't think you could go wrong.

only downside to these are they seem to be a little softer then the BFG ATs. ill have to ask my friend who runs these on his 86 F250 with the 6.9 deezil how his wear was.

Anyone try these tires in the snow. I always had BFG's on my trucks and suv's.

They're the best tire I've ever had in the snow. They can chew through the deep stuff and they are siped so they handle good on ice.

bfgs are better in anything that is slick like wet roads,and in the mud you need a lot of power to clean these things

No way are the BFG's better in the snow. That's what I had before the Grabbers. The Grabbers are better in all aspects. BFG's get gummed up pretty easy but the Grabbers clean out very well for an AT. They have more spacing between the tread lugs therefore you get more bite and they clean out better.
