    AT tire suggestions needed

    Need to replace my tires, so I'm looking for some suggestions on the best AT tires. Planning to buy at 4WO (learn more about their offered tires) since they are offering me a good deal though not sure what to get. Does anyone have experience with Terra Grappler, Grabber AT2 and BFG All-Terrain T/A KO? Also, I'm planning to add 2" lift on my rig. What's the max tire size I can put with that kind of lift?

    TOYO Open Country A/T 2 is what I run. Nitto's will wear too fast. I've never heard anything good about the Grabbers. I've seen quite a few sets of Grabber MT's come apart, don't know if the AT's are any better.
    Truck: 05 GMC CCSB SLT Z71,
    Go Faster: 5.3, 219/227 .607/.614 112, milled heads, eBay CAI, Circle D 2800, 3030 Built 60E, E-Fans, 3030 Tuned, LT's, Spintech Muffler, DuraGrip w/ 3.73's
    Look Better: 10K HID's lows & fogs, tinted Chevy tails

    How's the tread wear of your Open Country A/T2's?

    My last set of terra grapplers lasted a good bit almost 40k and I did lots of burnouts...ppl

    Tire pressure is key

    I currently have general grabber on my jeep..red letters
    With only 6000 miles they seem to be wearing great so far

    Had the bfg nice tire wear fast and skinnier then others of same size

    Had choice again Terra or general


    On my truck I now have trail grapplers and they are noisey and have a wear to them after 6000 miles..
    2002 Lightning - GT headed 5.5Litre w/ Twin 7665s
    2002 Silverado - 427Lsx w/ Twin gt4202s
    2010 Silverado crewcab Z71 - 5.3litre w/ procharger
    2000 Wrangler - 5.3litre with some stance
    2014 Xsport- 3.5 Eco boost
    412 Motorsports

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

    They are wearing very little, and very smooth. They have almost 10k miles. Been rotated once. I figure I will get 40k+ out of them. My last set was buckshots and I got 33k out of those

    Have 285/55R20 hankook ATM/rf10's w/ 5-6k on them, no issues and barely any wear so far. Worst part is they are now made in Korea. Next set will be cooper at3's.

    I have over 80k miles on a set of 305/55R20 Mickey Thompson ATZ's on my 06 lbz workhorse. I have towed frequently (3 times/week average) and grossed over 30k over 1/2 the time. Also plenty of time on back roads and off road (loaded). Cooper makes the tires for Mickey Thompson

    Cooper makes a 255/85R16 skinny 33"
