Tires BFGoodrich or Cooper

I’ve had both and the Cooper is superior in every condition. I ran them on my GMC Sierra but had BFG’s on several 4WD’s over the years. Where I lived we got lots of rain, some snow and occasional ice storms. I always had excellent traction. I drove them 60k miles and they still had tread left.

Yeah, keep rotating them and keep the alignment good. My BFG KO2s are holding up very well, having 40k miles on them.

I also have a set of coopers on my tj. I’ve been very impressed with them so far and love how they chew through the really deep stuff, mud or snow. Main thing is that they’re heavy which has put some wear on my steering rack and tire carrier, they can be pretty loud on the freeway with the top off but I love that.

Put them on my 22 TRD OR. Quiet, smooth ride, handle anything reasonable. As long as you’re not trying to do any massive off roading and worst terrain is going to deer camp on a rainy day they’re perfect.

Solid midrange choice.

Much better in all conditions than the Cooper AT3 S4s they replaced (though to be fair they were older and ready to be replaced). They ride quietly, comfortably aren’t killing my gas mileage and performed very very well in the recent snow.

When i put on BF Goodrich ko3’s I had much more traction in mud and sand

Of those three, I'd go with Coopers

These photos show what happened to two of my 265/75R16 E rated Cooper Discoverer AT3 tires after 4 years and 25k miles. One blew up and one developed a bulge.

Those are the worst tires I’ve ever had on an Outback and I don’t get why everyone wants or likes such insanely heavy stiff tires. They are also ansotkrkt horrible in winter on ice and snow and caused my car to slide and perform like crap.
