Default Procomp AT or Cepek FC-II

HI All...i'm planning on getting 285/75/16 tires, but not sure which brand to go with. Procomp AT and FC-II are my options right now (it seems like they're lower priced than goodyear or BF).

Primary use - pavement mostly (it's my daily drive) and snowy back road during winter time. Which one do you think will perform better during snow / rain?

Thanks for the input

So far I am quite happy with tmy FC-IIs. I do pretty much the same driving as you do and they do well in the snow which is the main reason I bought them.

Yeah....i'm so tempted on the procomp wit buy 3 get the 4th for free.... I'm just wondering about the other two quality wise. I think as far as pavement / snow performance, the three are pretty comparable.....

That leaves me with thread wear...which one last the longest?

I'm planning to just get 4 tire/wheel first, then get the fifth one after i saved up more money ..

Oh...one more thing, I know that Mickey Thompson has 3 ply sidewall and 6 ply thread....Does anybody know the ply on procomp and FC-II?
