Opinions on best "lite" AT tire?
I need to get new tires for my new-to-me SUV. I don't want to go
aggressive; I don't think I will even go as aggressive as a BFG AT. It has Michelin AT's on it now but they will need replacing soon and since I bought it with them fairly worn out I don't know how they perform, really. My priorities are as follows: -wet pavement -snow and ice -durability and ride quality -mud So you can see mud is way down there, but I really need wet pavement and packed snow and ice performance. It's a heavy vehicle so I'd like the tire to be reasonably strong since I wll be on rocky dirt roads, but I DO NOT want to put gnarly knobby tires on there; I have MT/R's on my TJ but this vehicle needs just plain ol' wussy AT's. What would YOU put on a Cherokee used for groceries, camping trips, ski trips, etc? -jeff |

I like my BF Goodrich AT KOs, the first tires I could hear my
stereo with, in fact practically no tire noise at all. They are made by Michelin which is the only thing I don't like about them.

Re: Opinions on best "lite" AT tire?
I'm pretty impressed with Bridgestone Dueler Revo's
Quit smooth ride, darn good traction on snow. Although not "that" great in slick mud Jeff Olsen wrote: > I need to get new tires for my new-to-me SUV.

Re: Opinions on best "lite" AT tire?
BFG AT KO's, I put them on both my Cherokee and my Grand. Low noise,
excellent wet/dry traction, really good in snow and mud when needed. I live in Virginia and we get snow/ice/mud every year, the rest of the time it's just wet and these are the best tires I've found yet.
