I actually run the Bridgestone Dueler REVO on ALL OF MY TRUCKS. I’m not saying I’m right but my experience with these tires in comparison to BFG T/K are far better. In the snow, mud and street, they are much quieter and grip great. If you do a lot of road driving, they are the pick. My BFG’s drove me nuts with noise, I took them off and sold them. For the snow, Bridgestone says these are the A/T tires meant for snow as well as the road. I agree. 2WD or 4WD, they work great in my opinion! Now price is a different thing, these are not cheap but will give you a good 40K mile run time.

The reason most are saying A/T is because of the dirt, grass, some challenging spots. I don't know how the tread life is on the Nitto or the Toyo. The Revo's are pretty good and the Michelin LTX is very good.

From my experience the Revo's are very good in all conditions I've seen them in off road and on road. Great grip in the bad stuff dirt/mud and great in the wet on regular road and suprisingly quiet for an aggressive tread. The Toyo's on my cousins truck do very well also in these areas.

The Michelin Cross Terrain is definietly a "street" tire that seems to wear much quicker than the LTX's IMO.

The BFG AT K/O is a GREAT off road tire but in my experience was HORRIBLE in wet weather and snow. No open channels for the water to escape made it a hydroplaning nightmare. In the cold they got to hard and didn't grip well on my friends trucks. 3 freinds had them replaced during a bunch of winter snows as they became that annoyed with how thet worked (or didn't). All 3 went with one of the other recommended in this thread (Revo, Toyo, Michelin M/S) The michelon was best on road and lasted for ever and did good off road, The Revo was the best all around, the Toyo was between them (better off road than the Michelin, not quite as good for the highway but definitely acceptable)

FWIW I owned a Chevy 2500 HD and put Nitto Terra Grapplers on it and a friend has a set on a Chevy Suburban. Other than being a little noisy on the highway. I have no complaints. They stayed balanced well and are showing no signigifcant signs of wear at about 35k miles. I believe they are only a 50k tire.

Now Chevy's are not Toyotas as far a road feel is concerned, but I was very satisfied with the Nitto given the lower cost.

I've been running Nitto Terra Grapplers on my Sequoia for two years now (about 25K miles), and I have loved them. I filled with nitrogen and have kept the same pressure for two years. They work well in snow and are not too loud, but they are pretty soft rubber. I believe I will only get about 5-8K more miles out of them before I have to replace.

I am considering other brands when its time to replace, but I will prob stick with these tires.

How do the Mich Cross Terrains compare with the Goodyear Silent Armor?

According to 22 millions miles worth of survey results on Tirerack....I'd say not real good.

Looks like the General Grabber HTS is the way to go. Thanks for the link!

General seems to have come up on a lot of their tires and reviews over the last 1-2 years. Not sure when they became part of Continental tire General Tire * Our Company but their Altimax Arctic is a rebadged Gislaved (also now part of Conti) which has also been awesome in reviews. I got the Conti Cross Contacts and they have peformed very well. Not many miles worth of reviews on the Generals but at least the Tirerack test review is also very positive.
