Quesiton for anyone running BFGs

[mbradshaw3]

I"m still trying to decide if I want to swap to the 17" SE wheels with 265/75/17 BFG ATs or just keep my 16" and add 265/70/16 ATs. Anyone have pics of these (I haven't seen ATs on 16" wheels") I'm leaning toward the 17" b/c I found someone selliing a set for a reasonable price, but then the tires will be an extra $120.

tires will be much cheaper getting the 16" wheels and also better selection as well.

good luck

What he siad is very true - I did not have much selection for 17 inch AT tires. Like 3 options that fit my need. Bridgstone Duler - very popular round here, BFG and Goodyear.

I settled on Goodyear ATS's. I had a set of them on my old rig as well at BFG atko's and thought for my application the ATS's were better. The did not cake up as much in the mud and were better on the road uin the rain. they have a little bigger lug gap (kind of between a mud an an at)
Just a matter of opnion/needs/exdperience - some live and die by BFG's & Revos.

You will also get more rubber (side wall) with a 16 incher and less rim. Could be a factor if you air down while wheeling.

Good luck - do your reasearch and let us know what you decide.
