Best tire for money

What is the best all terrain tire that I can get for the money?? Talked to a lot of tire guys and they've got me leaning towards the Revo's. Size will be 285/75/16. Going on an F-250 and I do a good bit of towing.

BFG all terraing TA KO and the Bridgestone Revo's are the 2 best AT tires out there IMO!!! Easily get over 50K miles out of both, with great on and off road traction.

Although mine are still sitting in garage awaiting the lift to be put on, I have dont LOTS of research and chose the ProComp Xtreme A/t's. They have one of the most aggressive tread for an AT tire and guaranteed 40k treadwear warranty. I dont think any of the other A/T tires offer a warranty at all. Im not denying that they do go voer 40-50k, but at least ProComp Guarantees it....
Im sure all the ones listed so far are great tires, I just like the ones I picked...good luck deciding.

The Nitto Terra Grapplers give a 50K mile warranty, here is a link. I love these tires, I have them on my truck and havent had any issues whatsoever. Good Luck

I have only had the BFG and Revos and out of them two I like the Revos better.

But I'm really really really liking these new Cooper STT's!!! But these are muds.

So what your saying is that you have not used any others to compare the BFG's to?

BFGs are good tires but they are expensive for what you get. My vote is for the goodyear silent armors. they handle snow and mud better then my BFGs ever did. plus the new BFGs have a thinner sidewall and less protection then their older models

I clear the tires pretty well. They do rub a little at full wheel lock (as I expected before I bought them). It's not a bad rub, and after 4 days of having them on there I learned to avoid full wheel lock. The only problem I run into is when I'm in a tight parking lot and even then a little rubbing on the control arm hasn't done any damage so I'm not too worried about it. I definately DO NOT regret getting the 35's. I love them and even went mudding once with them and they performed perfectly!
