Help with tyres!

Hey. Just bought BFG MT 215/75 and DOTZ rims 7x15 5x139.7 ET12. My old tires were Sahara Insa 215/75 on stock rims.









 

And here they are in motion

Hi Stoveltramp.
I would be interested to know why you chose the BFG's and how they stack up in comparison to the Insa Sahara's.

I have just bought a set of maxxis bighorn for my work pick up, honestly the best tyres I've had on it so far. £50 a corner less than BFG mud terrain.
I used to have a set of BFG all terrains on which made it a bit tail happy, I tow a trailer mostly and they tended to step out round roundabouts if turning right. I did run some malatesta mud terrains on it before and they were horrendous, like constantly driving on a cobbled road.
I park my trailer on my field and towing it out at this time of year I don't need 4wd to get it out, the only draw back is they do cut up the grass, not ideal if I have to drive on customers garden!

Hi Roger. Mostly due to a positive feedback in reviews and from other users.
In comparison with Sahara´s, they stand pretty well. Sahara is retreated tyre and because of that their rubber is darn hard. Almost like plastic. So ride on BFG´s is more comfortable. Besides obvious better driving and braking characteristics on ice. And they looks cool too Cheers

One small touch - just added caps for bolts, to cover these rusty nuts:


 

Also depends how green/muddy your lanes are and how much you do in the way of highway miles.  If they're very muddy go for the MTs, otherwise the ATs do a grand job and handle the highway betterer.
