When I bought my 4runner, it had Michelin LX tires. I was very impressed overall just how quiet and nice the 4runner handled. The tires were pretty old and I decided to replace them. I knew I wanted an AT tire and was hearing a lot of good things about Goodyear DTs and the new BFG K02s. I opted for the K02s and was really surprised at how quiet they were and it didn't feel much or any different than the Michelin LXs that I had on before. I can't comment on older BFG ATs or the Goodyear DTs, only what I got.
I am just wondering if there is a more pronounced difference between the Goodyear DTs in C and E versus, lets say BFG K02s. Maybe so maybe not.
Let us know what you end up going with and what you think though. Good luck!

Im comparing the same vehicle with both tires. The ultra ply walls, extra rubber, weight and 80psi rating makes them a 100 times stiffer tire no madder how you look at it.
With e loads you can feel every nook and cranny down the road. C's really soak that stuff up. I even have ran as low as 28psi and still can tell a difference.
