    Hey guys, im new to the group and this is my first jeep. I have a Sport 4x4. I had Toyo Open Country M/T on my truck before this and they were good tires. Just wanting some opinions on the Toyo AT2 vs the BFG KO2. The Toyos are cheaper by about 50-70$ which I found weird bc Toyo has always been more from my research. Are the BFG worth the extra $$? They seem to be the crowd favorite...?

    BFG is made by Michelin. You're paying more typically on BFG because of the patents involved, along side of the demand the All Terrains have had over the years of proven reliability. Puncture resistance as their sidewalls are fairly large. I don't to Toyo, and don't seen enough to put an opinion on them, but in my just under a decade of selling tires, BFG is worth it if you want the aggressive setup. I will be putting them on and taking my Geolander ATSs off before the end of the year :D

    I'm planning to go with a BFG Ko2 in 225/70r16. Will I be okay with those sizes at factory suspension? I've heard conflicting stories on sizing...?
