Jason,
I have a side note on these AT/S tires. I also was going to put these on my
Dak after my Hooiser Radial AT's(great darn tires for the price, great
traction!) went after putting about 45,000 miles on them. I looked at the
AT/S tires, but I have never liked Goodyear Tires, especially since my
Goodyear AT's were bald at 30,000 miles. The price really turned me away
alsoway over priced. We run Goodyear AT/S tires at work, local park
department on our 97 Chevy 2500 4x4 Trucks and they really have not been that
reliable of a tire, especially when trying to get traction in snow and in the
landfill's mud. I would suggest to stay away from them if you want an All
Terrain Tire. I have been extremely satisfied with my Dunlop Radial Rover
RV's that I am currently running, they currently have 33,000 miles on them
and have never let me down, especially in snow where I think they really
shine. Just my experience with some tires for some input. Hopefully these
Dunlops will last until I lift my Dak with the 4" TrailMaster kit in the
Spring, I will run 32' BFG Radial All Terrain KO's.
