    The thing about BFG AT's is they last forever.....they ain't cheap new either. About $1300 for a set around here. So yeah that's a awesome deal....post pics!!

    Great tire, but theyre loud as shat when they wear down. but for 250 that would be a steal. our escape has them, I love them other than the road noise. Im going with nitto terra grapplers next on it those were great on my 150.

    Tires for my rig cost too much new, there are too many good deals on cl. I can pick up tires with 90% tread with wheels for the cost of brand new tires.

    Yea no kidding...my brother had a 2004 Ford Sport Trac years ago and he put BFG A/Ts on it and drove to Tallahasse every weekend (about 2 hours away) and sold that truck with at least 50k on those tires and they still had 30% tread left.....they will be my next tire....can't afford these KM2s anymore. :(

    Road noise doesnt really bother me too much, my roomate has BFGs on his Mazda pickup, so im used to how they sound. plus I ran nittos on my mustang i had before the fiddy and those were loud as shat when they wore down lol

    Road noise on a truck isnt a bad thing. But our escape is a family car so when the radios off and the baby is sleeping in her carseat that road noise gets awfully annoying.
