I ran them in the 31x10.5x15 size for 3 years. Mostly highway driving with some moderate Offroad use to hunt and fish. They were " meh" in mud but what AT isn't ? They were great in winter and only used 4Hi occasionally . Much better than the BFG All-Terrains they replaced. They wore evenly and I got great life out of them. Would buy again.

Oh, and I want to personally thank-you for inquiring about a tire that isn't the Goodyear Duratrac * cough * gay*  cough .


So, yeah ...General AT2 . Great tire!

I have them in 235/75/15 on my 97 XJ DD. Got them used from a member here actually. I really like them, ran them last winter here in Kimberley and they did great. As good or better than BFG AT's I've had before.

Basically the same tread as a BF AT but they last alot longer, don't chunk out on gravel, and cost lest than the BF.
You might want to consider the walmart goodyear wangler, I think its called "authority" they are an actual all terrain, I have a set on a ZJ and am happy with them. Good wear, good traction, I think they're cheap, the set I have I picked up used.

The Authorities look similar to the GY Territories from CT I put on the wife's Dakota last winter. Got them studded for winter. Worked really well but we never took them off road other than thru the snow drifts on the driveway.

Someone on Pirate had a bad experience with the Authorites losing chunks off the tread but he had them on a diesel 3/4ton.
