That all depends on where you live, BFG A/T are def not good snow tires in my neck of the woods. Up here we call them sexy tires cause thats about all there good for in the winter is looks.

I'll agree that narrower is generally better than wider for snow, but if you're talking wider A/T's vs. narrow all-seasons, I'd have to pick the A/T's.
I also agree with the salt vs. rim argument, though. Salt can work it's way into/under a scratch in the clear coat and get ugly real quick.

hmm i live 2.5 hours north of you and lots of ppl including me love the BFGs in the winter. They are even rated for severe snow conditions as this symbol on the sidewall indicates

I know they have a picture of a snowflake on them however I didn't like them much, I found them decent on ice and hard pack when they were very new but they didn't last long. We get a lot of deep snow in north west BC and in deep snow they just didn't have the traction nor in slush. I think it was due to the treads balling up and becoming slicks, they don't clean well. A lot of guys from were i'm from call them a sexy tire.

Unless your Canadian snow is made different than the US variety, I don't follow. I had a set of BFG A/T's on my '88 Ranger, and they handled anything Old Man Winter threw at them. I wouldn't hesitate to have them again.

The first two winters I was back in Ohio, I didn't break out more than a fall jacket most of the season.
