I had the same problem.I ended up changing wheels and got 275 70 17.
What wheels do you have?
I personally did not like the BF and the Generel were not agressive enough went with
Cooper S/T , other members have them and suggested them.
It has been 3 weeks I have them put on close to 2200 KM'S on them.
They ride better than the stock and are smoother than stock Bridgestones,But are a little louder on the highway because of their agressive design.
Would I buy them again yes,but bigger.

yeah...moneywise i think i'm prolly stickin with either the Grabbers ($154 a tire) or the Fierce M/Ts ($183)....college budget


The Grabbers look very similar to the BFG AT's...do they perform close to the same??? Had BFG on my 97 cherokee and they worked great...

BTW i have the Rubicon style stock wheels
