Who here would recommend the Hankook Dynapro ATM

I bought my 09 FX4 about 5 months ago and would like to upgrade.
I'm coming from a Tacoma w/ BFG 31/10.5/15's as my A/T tire.
The AT's were great but the price and reviews of the Hankooks were great.

Just wanted some input of those who have them on this forum. I'm thinking of going 265/75/16 with my Ranger w/ a slight t-bar crank. Don't really want a body lift so that's about the biggest I want to go. Any experiences with the Hankooks would be appreciated good or bad. Please make my Wrangler RT/S's disappear!!!!

I have them on another vehicle and love them. Plus, they have a 50,000 mile warranty from Discount Tire.

We have some hankook ATM's in the back of the store I work at...they look like they'd be a really nice tire. I considered them, but wanted something more aggressive.

Just a quick review there, not a lot. But they're usually very honest.

I have them on my truck in a 305/70R16
I LOVE THEM.
Actually, I find that they perform better on road and off road in every area over the BFG AT.
Owned both on this truck.

I've done a little homework on the tire. Hopefully I'll be purchasing it and giving the old goodyears to a buddy of mine with a 97 f150. They still have gobs of tread left, only have 5K on all four.

Seems like the price is right too, on discounttire.com they're only 110 a piece which I think is very reasonable.

All AT's suck in the snow compared to true winter tires or Mud terrains depending on your application.
(Off Roading or Street Use)
However for an AT they do well, I ran them all winter with highway driving and my tire size and did not have a problem.
Of course you have to slow down in comparison to using true winter tires, but that's a given with any tire.

I like those tires and was going to get a set before the SAS was deemed necessary. Post up pictures when you get them!

I liked this review when I was looking at these tires

Finally got around to gettin pics up, Hankook Dynapro atm 265/75/16. Didn't have to crank the bars and they fit well. No rubs or issues so far. Not noisy at all on the highway either.

I'm pretty happy with them so far. Now I just gotta decide if I want the step bars off or not.
