Re: BFG AT's on a heavy vehicle and around rocks?
They're good on rocks unless the rocks are sharp like are found in some
areas favored by rock crawlers. We stopped using BFGs only because of
that, otherwise they are a great (!!!) tire. We had problems with sharp
rocks cutting through the sidewalls. But, once again, the BFG AT is
absolutely one of the best and longest wearing tires suitable for a Jeep
and most people would never have problems with sharp rocks.

I'm probably late to this but, here is my single observation. I'm 67 yrs
old and have owned everything from a BMW Isetta, to XK-140 and E-Type
Jaguars and a 455 Pontiac Bonneville. Anyway, being in Dallas, and going to
retire in the Sierra Nevada, we purchased his-and-hers Jeep Grand Cherokees.
They came with Goodyear tires which wore out at 20K miles and I asked my
Jeep dealer friend what to get. He said Michelin. Since that time I have
driven from Dallas to Sacramento ten times to the Traditional Jazz Jubilee.
We retired and moved to 4000 feet in the Sierra Nevada, and my son joined
the Marines and I drove him through the snow several times, across Echo
Summit (7000 feet) down to the east slope, in Nevada, and then back up to to
the USMC Mountain Warfare Training Center, at about 8000 feet. Anyway, my
Jeep now has 108K miles with 88K on the Michelins and they are about
half-way worn down. And I look at them, and I test their pressure, and I do
not believe what I see. I have never heard of anything like this. And my
wife's twin Jeep (also changed from Goodyear to Michelin at 20K) has only
70K and the tires look almost new. No question in my mind. Also most
surveys do not mean anything because there is no check on the people who do
the input. Anybody can say anything. And I used to do operations research,
