Default BFG all terrain t/a ko on snow and ice

How do they hold up? Moving to Nyack, NY....lots of hills and I'm guessing a lot of snow and ice. Advice?

Mine were excellent last winter. I only had to put it in 4wd during a couple heavy snowfalls!

I've ran them here in Breckenridge, CO on a '86 Blazer(plowed snow with this rig), '00 Super Duty cc(lifted), and a '06 Xterra(stock) and they rule on the snowpacked and icy roads so long as you keep them rotated... They are a very soft tread compound tire, and therefore will wear out according to how much you drive. I love 'em, and for their price I always run them in the winter here... They do poorly in the mud though, as their tread block spacing is too close...

Agree on the mud, always get a little swirly when I'm mudding. Same with heavy rain but I'm used to hydroplaning here in FL.

I had them on a 2005 Dodge Ram 4x4 QC. They absolutely dominated feet of snow, packed, fresh, didnt matter. Great tires, best ATs I've ever had.
