I am going to get a new set of tires for my Jeep WJ this year.
I was leaning towards either, Toyo Open Country A/T 3..or.. B.F.Goodrich T/A K02's...
Anyone on here use either of these brands, on their Jeep or truck?
What's your thoughts/opinion on those brands??
I have read reviews for both on Tire Rack, both get basically 4 to 4.5 out of 5 for overall rating.

I have cooper discoverer AT3 XLT's in LT285/70r17 on my wife's FJ Cruiser & 74 Ramcharger, and also have them on my F150. I absolutely love them, they work great on the texas beaches with blow sand (or sugar sand as some call it) and are nice and quiet on the highway. I've got 75K miles on the ones on the FJ Cruiser and they're getting a tad loud so a new set is in the future.

Between those 2 brands, I say whichever has the best tread design that suits the off-road environment in your area.

Thanks for your responses, I have already checked out Cooper's (from that link earlier)...
They don't make them in my tire size ( 245/70/16)....
That's why I mentioned the Toyo and B.F. Goodrich brands.
I am leaning towards the Toyo's at the moment, but have to do some more research.
Yokohama makes an A/T tire that might work as well.
I had General Grabber AT-2's and those were good, but I don't think they are available anymore.

Had Toyos and a couple other brands on my '93 Pathfinder, 31-10.50 R 15.
Their square shoulders tended to follow N Idaho snow-tire ruts, but otherwise they were a no-problem set of tires.
I later replaced them with Starfire brand from my local Cooper tire shop - no tram-lining, and a surprisingly better tire all-around.
