All this talk about Bridgestone AT this, MT that. What about Yokohama? I went tire shopping at tirerack.com , hmmmed and hawwed, looked and scratched and found the Yokohama Geolander AT II (285/75R-16). Very agressive looking tread pattern, quiet on the road (as compared to the stock Dunlops), great traction. tirerack has a rating system to compare tires and the Yokahama ranked head to head with the BFG AT. The only knock I could find was treadwear, but hey, 40,000 mi waranty. What sold me was the price. $104.00 vs $159.00 for the BFG's. Yowza!!
Are you saying that your Yokohamas are actually quieter than your stock Dunlops that were on there from Toyota. Or just that you thought they were quieter than Dunlops AT.

That's kind of like comparing apples to oranges and if that's true, than those Yokos are really quiet. That's a *very* aggressive tread to be that quiet.

How is the ride compared to the Dunlops though?
