Never had good luck with Good Year. Over priced and left me disappointed. BFGs are very good, I am running Uniroyal Cross Countrys. Got a good review on Consumer Reports and I do little off roading but am exposed to a lot of snow and rain. They are holding up nicely. GOt them at BJs in the 265/70r16 for 100 bucks a piece with a coupon. Plus rotate is free and is done while I shop.

You have something against the French or what? I say if they make a better tire go for it. I don't see them as overpriced (overpriced would mean that they aren't wotrth what you pay for) personally they are great tires. I had a lot of trouble in rain with my OEM Wranglers as well and after I switched to the BFG's I never had to worry about hydroplaning and could get home safely in all conditions. Yeah, What he said, My Michelins are probably the best I have had in a longtime, French, British, Austrailian, Asian, if they can make a good quality product then so be it. Remember after the sale, is where the fun begins, make sure you check the pressure, rotate and align at proper intervals, and they will take care of you. My Bridgestones before this recent set lasted well above (10K MILES) above what the manufacturer expected them to, mostly to checking pressure and inspection. One final side note, if you purchase tires filled with Nitrogen make sure during the pressure checks if servicing is required use Nitrogen, Nitrogen is Drier, and more stable with cold/heat differences.
