BFG Rugged Terrain TA
Got some new tires the other day, wanted something more aggressive but still reasonable on the highway. So far I am very happy.
Details:
2008 Urban Runner 4wd
BFG Rugged Terrain TA 265/65/18
FJ Springs
1" Toytech Front Spacer
FYI: I first mounted 255/70/18 and they rubbed quite a bit.

Sweet. My exact setup and I'm in the market for tires. I'll prob stick with factory size, unless I go for bfg at ko's. Then I'd have to get a 265/65. Can't decide between these two bfg options, revos, or discoverer 3's.

BFGs have served me well in the past, I had the BFG KO ATs on my old Chevy Pickup and G-Force KDW2s (sick tread design) on my Mustang. The ATs were great tires, but they were on the noisy side especially at highway speed. Most of my driving is interstate so I went with the less aggressive Rugged Terrains. I don't think you can go wrong with the high-end BFGs.

BF Goodrich
Just replaced the Duelers with the same sneakers. Suprised how quiet they are given the aggressive tread pattern. Handling is improved and yes they do look nasty compared to OEM...lets hope they last as long

I replaced both my Runner's stock Dun-flops with BFG's, and theyve done me extremely well! My 03 has the same BFG's that i put on it at 32k, it has 92k now and still plenty of tread! I prefer the raised-white lettering tho. I hear it adds 2-3 horsepower ;-).

Good choice. Rugged terrain is what I will put on next summer. Probably a 265/65/17. Kinda want a 265/70/17 but fear that an extra inch will screw up the transmission ratio somehow.

My Hankook Dynapro's will need replaced next fall and I will keep the Rugged Terrain as an option. Thanks for the info.

I would just go with the 265/60 18's again. If you want to compare some sizes you can try this site

Hey momo.75, I bought the Rugged Terrains after sawing your posts when you bought them awhile ago! I was looking for some new ones and didnt want the BFG AT tires (had them in my old car) since I drive on hwy most of the time. I settled with the Rugged Terrains after noticing the aggressive treading and of course your thread lol.
So far in heavy rain, they have been quite stable. Went off roading with them a few months ago in a deactivated logging road and they were awesome. Not sure how they will handle in the snow or extreme slippery conditions since they are not sipped.
Thanks ! haha
