What's Up?
Looking to put some new rubber on my 98 Ram 1500. Stock tire could be a 245/75-16 or a 265/75-16. Bought truck last month with worn Cooper Discoverer A/Ts sized in 265/75-16. Truck might only see dirt roads 10% of the time. Would like great snow & wet traction above all, but long wear & reasonable noise levels would be nice too. I'm leaning towards:
BFGoodrich's All Terrain T/A KO,
Another 4 Discoverer A/Ts,
Yokohama's Geolandar A/T II
Can't spend more than 150 per tire. Anyone have suggestions/experience they'd be willing to share? Making my purchase in 3 weeks. Thanks for the help!

You hit the nail on the head with the BFG's...i've used the A/T's since i can remember.. great tire, great traction , minimum noise, long wear...but remember to get the full advantage of a set of tires.. don't forget to rotate them.
