The BFG TA/KO are riding on the reputation of the old BFG A/T. I have had
both and the was thoroughly unimpressed with the new KO version. Sidewalls
were complete mush, traction was down and road handling was not as good.
Make sure you ask people who liked them whether they had the old A/Ts or the
new AT/KO. I loved the old A/Ts but my next set of tires will be the Revos.

I've got the BFG TA/KO's 31x10.5's and I love them. They've gotten very
good reviews everywhere I looked..

I got em from tirerack for like $126 a tire I think.

| Time to throw some new rubber on the dak. I've got a '00 quad cab 4.7
| 4x4 slt with 72000 on the old Goodyear wrangler rt/s - not bad but I'm
| almost riding slicks now. Size is 31x10.50 r15 lt. I've been snooping
| around various websites looking at pricing for new wranglers - places
| like justires.com, merchantstire.com, mileone.com, discounttire.com
| etc.
| Any other places I should try? I'm in the northern Virginia area.
| Thanx
| in advance, adam
