I've been buried twice with the stock Goodyears (both in sand). I've been
stuck once with my BFG's (very deep sand, pulling jetski trailer). With
the BFG's
I found that in sand they were 'marginally' better than the gy's, but tons
better on
loose stuff (rocks, some water/mud).
I still have my BFG's, but I am running GT-Qualifier clones from
Super Shops (255-60-15). Same height as my 215/75's, but much wider.
Took a drive on Fiesta Island (sand), and was very happy with the
floatation.
I could stop on deep stuff, and still get going. I'll get new BFG's (but
bigger)
once I can find a set of rims for my jeep so I can donate the 215/75's to
that.
(the rims on the jeep too wide for the 215/75's)
