Ok, I have to get a new set of boots for the Jeep, they need to be roadable (say 80% offroad 20% onroad) size 33x12.50.15

I'm looking at

BMG KM2's €189/each
Cooper STT €191
GT Radial Adventuro €169/each

What are your thoughts

BFG's or Goodyear Wrangler MTR's

BFG or Coopers,had STTs and they are good on road and wear well,like the BFGs

I'm running BFG KM2's - but only done 5K so far - I previously ran BFG AT's and they were good for at least 65K.

Here's hoping another 60K to go!

The BFG AT's were quiet, whereas the KM2's have a road noise - nothing bad mind you - I've done long runs down motorways without any noticeable annoyance

BFG MT or Cooper STT get my vote

BFG's, love em'! they wear better than wranglers & as aren't as puncture prone as the wranglers! They are noisier than the earlier BFG muds cos' of the stiffer side wall but it's not too intrusive! I can't comment on STT never run em'!

Run both AT & MT BFG's & to be honest wouldn't run anything else ..... my 2p worth but your cash

I've just bought a set of the GT Radial Adventuros. They're not fitted yet, so I can't comment on what they're like but for the price it was worth a go

I have run BFG ATs on the KJ for almost four years/30K and have had no problems..no punctures, quiet on tarmac, great in snow and wet conditions. Solid tire..IMHO.

I concur...

BFG all the way!!

Updated pics with BFG KM2's 275/75/16 - fitted to my newly coated Anthracite Wheels - and a 2" BB lift.

Simex Extreme Trekkers (aka Centipedes). Seriously......

....Don't go there. Obviously you would get there, but you'd be deaf, shaking, have white knuckles and blurred vision. I love mine

Over the years I've had Goodyear Wrangler MTRs, Kumhos, Marshalls and BFGs in A/T and M/T flavour.
Kumho/Marshalls (same thing) are a great budget alternative, but don't wear particularly well, MTRs are a great tyre but best of all are the BFGs.
Just don't get Simexes.......

i have simex copies- insa turbo special tracks as my off road tyres

BFG KM2 mud terrains as my road tyres

My Maxxis Creepy Crawlers are in the same league as Simex for road comfort then
