BFG AT or MT on a 110

(1/4) > >>

cotefarmboy:
Pick up my new 110 XS CSW soon and I see the stock tyres are 235/85/16 General but guess they will be road biased. As I off road a fair bit I will be swapping these straight away for some BF Goodrich. Will the AT's be good enough for muddy conditions or do I really need to go for the MT's? I had MT's on a 90 and found them noisy on the road and a bit slippy in the wet, given that the 110 XS has traction control etc I think the AT's will do.

Don't really want 2 sets of rims and have to swap over.

Any comments?

Big Watty:
I've got MT's on my 110 but I don't use it on a daily basis

AT's seem to get a good press and a friend of mine who has alandcruiser uses them in all the places i go without any impedance

FWIW I'd probably go for the AT's

Lumbering Jack:
I use my 130 every day and do around 30,000 miles a year on BFG MT's and would go for them every time.  Bit noisy but have had worse and they grip well both on and off road and seem to be wearing really well.

Had AT's on my hilux and they were good on road and terrible off it.

madmatt:
MT's! My 130 works hard for a living and is shod with MT's they aren't that noisy at all. Infact I don't even notice any noise. They stick like glue to wet tarmac too even with 3500kg trailer behind us.
