    I just put a set of BF All Terrains on my diesel 265/75/16, less than 800 bucks for the set. I am on my 3rd set of BF All Terrains and I have 150k plus on my truck….these tires have been very good for me.

    Yep, got 63,000 out of my original set. Now it’s time to replace and make a decision. Buy the same set I had, which was a great tire for me, or for a few bucks less get a much better rated tire.
    The only thing is I am a raised white letter guy and the other ones are blackwalls. I like the sporty look of white letters VS. the work/farm truck look of blackwalls.

    If you like the BFG A/T take a look at the General Grabber AT2 I just put them on my truck. They look almost identical to the BFGs for hundreds less. According to the Discount tire guy they are more off road capable, do too a more self cleaning tread pattern. Noisy though but so are the BFGs. Only a few hundred miles on them so far but overall happy with them. White letters in unless your rockin a 70s muscle car.

    I voted OWL, but I think it somewhat depends on the truck. My buddy has a black Tahoe with black sidewalls, and I think that looks sharp. But my truck is silver, and I like the OWLs on my General Grabbers

    I put Cooper Discovery HT Plus on my truck last spring and have been very impressed with their traction on wet and snow covered surfaces so far. I bought them from Farm & Fleet when they had their buy 3 get one free promo, plus Cooper had a $50 back on a set of 4. Got a set of 275-60-20 for under $600 mounted with extended warranty.

    And they look really good!!

    I voted for white lined but really I will take whatever tires they are as long as they are a good tire and I can get a good price for them.
