time for new rubber

Almost have 70k on my bfg at's and they're about done....I've been shopping around the past few days comparing pricing on various 285/75/16. It's amazing that some places can be up to $50 more expensive per tire than others! Still not sure if I want at's again or if i'll go with a mt this time. I think I narrowed it down to either goodyear wranger at/s and bfg at's or goodyear mtr's and bfg mt's. Best price otd I've found is in the range of $760 for the at's and $815 for the mt's. But, I also have been looking at the cooper discover stt. I had a set of them on a previous truck and they wore like iron and still rode well for a mt, and the price is the best part. I can get them otd for $632. So, got some thinking to do this week. I know everyone here has their own opinions, but I would like to know if anyone has seen better prices on the above mentioned tires? thanks!

You probably saw this coming but ...REVO's, in your size and rated...find my recent initial review from a few days ago and also others will share their opinion also if you are interested. I thought too about BFG KOA/T...~I think the 265/70/17 mounted/bal/etc...were ~650, the 285/70/17 were ~750 (about the same as you), but when it came down too it...the REVO's seem to be favored more on this site and sites such as tirerack.com etc...anyway, you may at least want to research them a bit just to find out about another option and very strong/popular choice, I am glad I got the REVO's, they are outstanding...later,

I just put the REVO's on two weeks ago. I am completly satisfied. They have not seen snow yet but living here in CO. i'm sure it wont be long. Good luck.

well.....i ordered a set of goodyear wrangler at/s 285/75/16 today. should be in on monday, paid $740 otd which includes the lifetime rotate/balance. i looked long and hard at that was the best deal i could find. could have got another set of bfg at's for about $765 but just wanted something different. i also ordered a set of bilstien hd shocks that i will put on next week. thanks for the input! i will try to get some picks posted later.
