dueler A/T Revo

[izackary]

i know what you said...but is there any point in comparing tires with the same tread pattern? i'm not asking about revo's vs BFG KM's...the tread pattern difference is why i'm interested in how they compare! Or i suppose I could put Revo's and BFG KO's on opposite corners and let them fight it out...

Ok, maybe there is a slight difference, but this looks a bit more aggressive though.

The side lugs are more aggressive.. yes.. but the center tread design is alot more packed together on the KO... but no one ever said the KO's were good in mud...

...or snow. they're a great tire, but i can't wait to get the revo's into snow. i can't afford to risk having an "ok in snow" tire.

I like how the BFG's are being pit against the Revo's in 2 threads at the same time....

See my post on the bottom of page 2 on why I got the Revo's and the AT KO's...

The short story.. They're BOTH GREAT TIRES! Buy whichever makes YOU happy/confident

Like I said in the other post it boils down to size for me. Revo's largest size is 31".

Or 33x11.50R16... but most people want 15" rims...

I just refuse to ever get stuck I've been close, but I've never had to resort to anything other than my own truck to get unstuck. I'm also not compromising ride quality and treadwear associated with more expensive mud tires that will still slip on snow and ice much more than an A/T will.

you arent trying hard enough

no, i'm just good. Check with Nick26...He's got 2 inches of lift minus his running boards, plus 32" BFG mud's (another 1.5 inches up), and i still crossed the same bouldery, slippery stream he did...and that was the easy part. the tough part was going back onto the trail between a sharp 12"-high iceberg of a rock on the right, and a tree on the left; this being the ONLY way thru. He bombed his way thru and caught a couple dents on his way thru. AND I SALUTE HIM FOR IT!! But I'm not one for dents in my daily-driver work-truck. I like it to look smooth and muddy with no dents.
