tire opinions??

alright i want to go with some 30x9.5x15 on my 97 tj, 5 spd, 4 cyl.

now my question is i know the price should tell me pretty much which are better than others but im wondering which one of these tires would u guys recommend. im leaning towards the BFGs all terrains but their pricey as hell..

1) Yokohama Geolander M/T +
2) BFG All Terrains
3) Roughrider M/S (saw them at canadian tire)


out of all the roughriders are the cheapeast.. but id like to hear from some fellow jeepers that perhaps tried these tires and what they would recommend sometimes the most expensive tires isnt neccessarily the best.

thank you

I have BFG All Terrains they are great on the road tire and a ok offroad tire as long as you don't go into the mud that much. They also have a good looking tread design.

jeeps only driven in the summer.. so snow is out of the option.. not a hardcore offroader either.. i guess the all terrains are the way to go here.. but their soo pricey damnit. i live in canada and here around the store they retail for like 175$/tire CAN thats like 148$/tire USD

Bridgestone Dueler Revo's are the best A/T for mixed use, but BFG KO's are not far behind.

I have BFG all terrains and they are extremely noisy. Is this inline with everyone else or do I have a wheel bearing going out. The jeep came with these on it so I just thought it was the tires.

Where are you? Just drive down and get a tireshop to put them on if you are close to the border.
