BFG Tires: All Terrain KO or Long Trail T/A

Any pros or cons on these two tires would be very helpful. Sorry if this has been covered before.

The BF All Terrain T/A KO

Or

BF Radial Long Trail T/A
I do mostly Highway and city driving in my 4runner with very minimum off road.

Personally i would go All Terrains... didnt long trail's come stock? theyre just a cheaper OEM tire, the A/T is a nicer tire... i'll be picking a set up for my winter tires this year...

From what I've seen the AT's are a far better tire.

I can not comment on the BFG Long trails i have never run a set on any of my Vehicles.
The closest thing i have had is the Rugged Trail TA's that came on my 04 Tacoma and i was not impressed they just didn't have the traction i was hoping but they came stock so i couldn't complain They were horrible in the snow
I have had a couple of sets of All Terrains in 31's and 32's i have been very happy with them. I just put another set of 31 All Terrains on my Girlfriend's Runner last year and they are working great. Great in the snow, water, dry road cornering ect. The road noise is very quiet for an aggressive tire pattern. Rim protector is handy when rubbing up against a sidewalk or a tree..

Another note i think the Long Trails are only 2 ply sidewall where the AT's are 3 ply somebody can correct me if I'm wrong I'm at work and my mind is a blurrrr

Hope this helps

BFG A/T are a poor choice if you spend almost all your time on pavement and even Nittos are much better in the wet or dry on pavement but also aren't the best choice for minimal; off road. I'd recommend something along the line of Revos or Yokohama HT-S since you have much better control in the wet and dry vs the BFGs or Nittos.

Both Nittos and BFGs are solid tires for people who really off road more than a few times a year and your truck is also a daily driver. .
