I am just waiting for them to get more in inventory. If you go on their site, they offer these in 6, 8 and 10 ply, I am going for a 10 but will take 8 ply also.

x2 on the Tread Wright's. Great customer service, fast shipping, and awesome tires for the price.

I just put 235/85/16 kelley tsr's on mine last week and love them. I had this same tire on my cherokee and is a good tread both on and off-road and they are some what quiet on the highway for an aggressive tire. I love this size tire, looks great, not as tall as the 265's it's basically a 32/9.50. and is a common dually size tire so there pretty available 10 ply sizes.

Not to be contrarian, but I have read many good reviews about BFG A/T with regard to tread life and quietness. They might not be the best in snow and ice, or mud, but that all depends on where you live and what you intend to use the rig for. For someone that's going to do 90% driving on pavement and 10% light offroading I think they make sense IMHO.

Is there a difference between BFG A/T and BFG TA KO's?

Sure they are quiet and they will last for ever but don't drive them in the rain, they are one of the most expensive overall junk tires made by BFG. By the way, I have run BFG MT's for over 100,000 miles, they are a great tire.

I'm looking at the Sentinel A/T's and the Warden A/T's.

Which load rating? "D" or "E"?

I don't want a harsh ride. So, "D"??

Go with the "D" rating, you dont need the "E" rating unless you are kitted out in full expedition gear.
