atually, my big o's feel like they're out of ballance too but I thought it might just be that they weren't balanced right when the po had them mounted or a weight fell off or something but they might just not balance that good. never had a problem with the bfgs

I ran the BFG's on my wife's DD GC but was really unimpressed with them, especially after approx 50% tread since they were so damn loud. Regular balancing, PSI, or rotations never made a difference. When we replaced them we went with the new Goodyear Wrangler AT with the kevlar reinforcment and we love them. Traction in rain, snow or dirt (never had them in mud) has been phonomenal and they are the quietest tires I have ever experienced. I was shocked at how well they performed last winter in the snow and ice. They have nearly 40K miles on them and I'm sure the tread is still pretty close to 65-75%. I would whole heartedly recommend these tires.

lol have you SEEN what those look like after about a year... wow.. POS
But nobody has them! Giving you that
look you're after.....Seriously, BFG AT's seems to be the most common with everyone else posting in this thread and they all seem to have personal experience. To me, that's a done deal....

For REAL? You plan to tow something with a 4.0L Grand? That's one of the funniest things I've ever read.
We've got 135K on a 4.0L ZJ and are quite happy with it but I'd NEVER tow over 2000 lbs with it. It can barely get out of it's own way how it is, let alone towing something.
Oh, and to stay on subject, I'm not a BigO tire fan at all. I'm into round tires and the few sets of Big O tires I've acquired (through a vehicle purchase) have totally sucked as far as balancing and driveability. There's no problem with their warranty but I'd rather have a pleasant driving experience.
I'm pretty sure I've NEVER had BFGs (other than Radial T/As) but I would and have considered them.
BFG. No offense to Big O but I will never buy anything from them. The only thing I will have them do for me is fix a tire with a nail in it. I had some tires on my first truck I ever owned that had a warranty. When after a year the tread on the tires was horrible. I took them into them and they said you must be abusing them doing burnouts and stuff like that. Well that was not true because my little 4 cylinder could not do a worthy burn out and I drove five miles to work each day. But whatever I would go for the BFG over the Big-O tire.

Hmmmm.....Don't tow anything with a Grand with a 4.0l. They're slow.
Tow a Grand with a XJ.....apparently this makes them go faster than they can on their own.

Yep, they've almost got a real engine when you team them up like that.
I can attest to not towing with a GC... we had to rescue my BIL's 4runner a few years ago.. The trailer through us around at 55mph+
I've never feared more for my life than i did that day...

Just a part time deal, few times a year.
