    I had great mileage from BFG a/ts , they don't like being aired down, and when down on tread tend to "tram track"
    I sold them to my BIL at 100K he got another 30 out of them .
    The new MT atz3 I think has neat side biter
    04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there

    Mudnut how are these Tyres going mate I have to start thinking about my next set and are undecided whether to go another set of km2's (which I will prob see 110k out of my current set) or try the rugged terrains.

    Put BFG KM2's 285/70/17 on the truck about 1200k ago. So far very impressed, mainly done road kms but they really shone in the mud. A bit noisier on the blacktop than the Bridgestone Dueler AT's but that's a very small price to pay for the added off-road performance.
    Due to the bigger tyre my fuel usage has increased by about 1.5 litres per 100k but that is partly offset by the fact my speedo is now correct at 100kph. In reality my speedo is now accurate and previously I was calculating fuel usage on an inaccurate distance covered.
    Hope I'm still as impressed in about 60,000km's, but going on feedback from others I won't be disappointed.
    Cheers
