It was fairly true for ZJ's too, when it came down to it.

BTW, i have done way more wheeling on BFG AT KO's than I have on MTRs and I have to chime in that the BFG AT was a pretty nice all around tire, for what it was.

It had great on road manners, and was quiet and nice for using around town.

It worked fine off road as well, at Big Bear level difficulty trails or events like TDS out by the Salton Sea.

Really, the BFG AT's biggest weakness was mud or fine dust over rock. Of course, I was wheeling open back then, so that was probably the real issue.

I'd have no problems going back to BFG AT's if I were not wheeling in JV now and then. IMO, they are the best compromise DD/ "regular off roading" tire there is.

Plus they last for ever.
