BFG AT's or MT's better in snow?
My AT's, on my TJ, handled snowy elk camp great last year, including towing a
trailer back OUT on icy snow-packed roads. I was pleased with their performace
on snow. However, I regeared to 4.10 and want to go to at least 31's, so I
need to buy tires, and so I am trying to figure out if I should go MT this
time, or AT again. There were times, here in western Oregon, that my AT's gave
me pause. These would have been the times I contemplated trying deep sticky
mud. MT's would be much better for that, I am told, though let me also say
that I am not a fan of mud and what it does to vehicles (or trails for that
matter), so any serious mud use would be mostly out of neccesity.
Are MT's at least as good at AT's on snow packed roads? How about "raw" snow?
Deep snow?

I am with Bill on this particular recommendation: to hell with Goodrich,
buy American.
