I own the TG so i can only vouch for them and saying they do everything i need them to do...hunt, fish, dirt grade at work in the rain.....no prob bob! 13k on mine so far and not much wear on em.
They don't clean very well. They cake and turn into slicks fast with snow and mud. They are terrible in clay also.

If you want looks, buy them.

If you want function, look at neither.

Most on tire rack don't buy based on looks like 80% here do. The people (most) tend to buy on function especially when you read the reviews.

The Terra Grapplers are nothing more than a glorified highway tire.

Get the BFG's if you want on and offroad performance. The BFG's are great in snow, but like ALL A/T's, performance decreases greatly in mud. You'll have to keep them spinning very fast in an effort to help clean them out.

In all actuality, If I didn't have the money for BFG's and needed an A/T, I'd go with the Terra Grapplers. They're more aggressive looking than Duelers, Forteras, Wranglers, etc.

The BFGoodrich tires are the way to go for sure. The tire has been around for ever and has a good track record. Here is a link on the tires and we do have reviews posted from customers who have purchased them.

Thank you,
