you have just made me rethink my upcoming BFG MT purchase
Thanks a lot!
Now where did I put that survey that lists the BFG's first?

Don't forget those surveys are seldom completed by those who care about
offroading. For example, Firestone's Destination M/T (n the Off-Road
Maximum Traction area) was rated #1 and it is probably the tire least
seen offroad. THen it ranked Goodyear's MT/R 4th on traction even
though it is probably the tire that has taken the hardcore offroading
community by the biggest storm in years, and is what I see on the
toughest rock crawling trails by far.

Those surveys should not be the final answer on what tire works best for
a Jeep that gets driven offroad.

Not to mention it's the sampling group is likely very small since it
comes ONLY from those completing Tire Racks online survey... so I ask
anyone who takes such surveys very seriously if they really trust a
survey that has such limited data to work with.

Dang after reading the embarassingly structured stuff I wrote below. I
wish Newsgroup posts could be editted for obvious grammar-related and
fat-finger typing errors afterwards like forum posts can.
