Looking at new tires and stumbled across the general grabber at/2's. I was dead set on the tko2 tires but they have a sale on the grabbers right now all 4 on the truck for 900$. Lowest estiment I've gotten for tko2 is 1280$. Is the tko2 that much better or are the general grabbers a solid option for the price?

I have bought these tires twice and they're amazing. My 285's were a little too big so I went down to a 265/75. Overall they are great, 50k tire, not a lot of road noise, and I haven't gotten them stuck. What size rim are you running?
Tirebuyer.com has some good deals on them.
I run them on my 93. Love em. Very stiff sidewalks and deep tread. They are good in the snow. Great for rough roads. I don't do serious wheeling. Where I live getting home is enough for me. Not bad on ice ( they accept studs if you want to go that route. Maybe not the best choice for year round driving on mostly hard pavement, though.

Don't know what size you are looking for, but Tirebuyer has the At2 in 265/70/17 for $647 shipped to an installer using coupon code COUPONSCOM9 (search and you may find a better coupon).
Installation in my town is an extra $68 from the Tirebuyer preferred dealer for a total of $715 installed in Oregon.
I have these tires and LOVE them. My wife has 20" KO2s on her 4runner limited and they are ok, but horrible on ice.
Edit: Just saw your profile lists you in Baltimore. Installation there is $66 so $713 OTD. Much better than $900 assuming this is the size you are looking for. Good luck!

265/65/17 is stock. 265/70/17 runs fine with no rubbing. 265/75/16 is a common size, but I don't think many tires run 265/75/17.
I have found the General's to be very good in rain for an AT tire.
I agree with Bamma Ok, in the rain for what they are. I've never experience any wet road issues with them but then again I don't push it in the wet. If it's your daily driver there may be better choices.

I ran these for about a year on my old Limited wheels 275/65/18s and they were great! They did well in just about every condition, also great in snow. I also wheeled the crap out of them and they did great, really tough well rounded tire. Can't beat it for the price!
I had them on a 2500hd and were very good tires. I loved the way they looked. Mine were 265/75-16 e range. They were heavy and tough, but it was a 3/4 ton truck. I live in the midwest and went all 4 seasons with no problem. Snow and rain were great!
The FIL hated General tires, said every set he had broke a belt. They were about 1/2 tread when I sold the truck to buy my 4runner.

I'm not sure, I'm running a 16. They've been great in everything, once you start running them, you'll probably never turn back.
900 WOW Seems rather pricey 900 out the door for them when you can get them shipped from tire rack 556.80 plus shipping and you still come out ahead having someone put them on

Agreed. I mentioned tirebuyer as they do not charge shipping and for whatever reason tire racks at2 is not severe snow rated. I bought from them and had a bfg tire that would not balance and it was easy to get replaced. Their truck picked up the bad tire and dropped off a new one the next day.

Brother recently got these 275/65r18 Grabber from some holiday deals at 4WheelOnline.com, huge difference from stock on rain and mud here in GA roads.
