Hey everyone,
After spending about a week reading up about tires and reading reviews and comparing prices I finally found my new set of tires for my 98 XLT. I just got a set of 30x9.5/15 BFG All Terrain T/A KO tires from a local tire shop out here in Victoria.
I ended up gettin a pretty good deal on them which is one of the reasons why I went with the tire actually. The shop was cheaper than any online dealer I could find including ebay.
I was originally looking at a less aggressive tire, like a Michelin LTX M/S or another AT the Yoko Geolander HT/S. But the BFGs were always on my list and at the price I got I couldn't pass them up.
I didn't want to go with the 31x10.5 tire size because I was concerned about fuel mileage and possible rubbing, even though i've seen pictures of others fitting them in. I'm pretty pumped about the look of these tires, they look awesome on the X, I got the raised white letters showing.
They definitly are a bit louder on the highway than my previous highway all season tires, but they don't seem that much louder, and when you have the music going you can't hear a difference.
Overall i'm really happy with these tires, and I think for the price they are probably a better value than some of the more expensive tires.
