B. F. Goodrich radial all terrain T/Ako should be perfect for your application. They look good too.

I'm with snyder on this one. I have BFG T/A's (came out with the ko's right after I bought them) on my '91 gasser. They ride quiet for an off road tire, and I have a hard time getting them to let go of the pavement while driving in water. The Trail T/A's are a little less agressive tread and will last longer on the highway. I think they cost about $15-20 ea. more. I don't really know how they work, but several people I have talked to like them.

Take a look at the Cooper Discoverer A/T, they have Raised White Outline Letter, 50,000 tread life warranty, good traction tread. I have used them on my vehicles with good performance and about $20-$40 less than the BF Goodrich T/A KO'S.

I'm also with Snyder. Go with the BF Goodrich All Terrain T/A's. I had 2 sets on my Dakota and just put a set on my Ram. They're great wet weather and snow tires. They will also take some punisment too. Hit a curb one night and sliced the side wall clear in to the cords, but it kept its integrity and didn't loose any air (although my alignment took a beating)! They are definitely better than the stock Goodyear things that come with the truck. My girlfriend has had a 2 sets of BFG's on her trucks as well and is pleased with them.

sagwagon,
I vote with snyder, BFG AT TA's. I'm not sure what the KO is but I've had two sets of TA's on prior trucks and averaged 50K on each set. They are the best tires for the money.
