It sounds like I can't go wrong with any of the choices. I'm lucky enough that the dealer is going to buy my tires off of me when it comes in from the factory. so all that money can go towards my new ones. I'm working on them to buy the wheels too but they don't seem to want them

I just put on 285/70R17 Cooper Discoverer AT3s and they are very nice and quiet. I like the look of them as well. I paid $160 per tire so not too bad. I kept my stock MOAB edition rims.

It looks like you didnt put a lift on your jeep. Any problems with wheel clearance? Does it rub at all? Did you have to use spacers?

Often overlooked but great tire and lower cost is the General Grabber AT2. They have a very similar tread pattern to the BF Goodrich All-terrain but again, lower price point. They're quiet on pavement and have handled snow very well. Tread life has been good so far through 15,000 miles.

Another great tire I didn't see on your list is Falken WildPeak AT. About 150-200 bucks cheaper. I run these on my jeep. Great on wet roads, snow and handle great offroad.

I have experiance with the BFG AT's & Firestone Destination AT 2"s ( on other Jeeps) both have excellent wear & handling in any type weather that we get up here in New England
I don't have them on the JK YET but will be going with one of these when the time comes hope this helps

Just purchased these DC gunmetal 7's to fit on my 4 door billet silver on its way from the factory.
Having a hard time picking tires
Going with 285/70r17
I don't want an E rated tire... Need something for everyday driving and will rarely be offroard. And by rarely I mean never
MPG are pretty important to me as we'll as being quiet
Going between
Firestone destination A/T
Bf goodrich all terrain
Toyo open country AT2
Cooper discoverer a/t3
I like the goodyear duratrac too but the price may be a little steep for me
Live in south florida wear the roads are usually wet
Ready go
