I love these tires, a little noisy but not really annoying. I chose Load Range E due to the stronger sidewall for offroading purpose. My ride is very decent with 40psi in the tires. I think my lift has a lot to do with it, I am using a 2" Terrafirma med lift. My brother's D2 with OME seems firmer, he is also using BF Goodrich mud tires..very scary in snow I might add.

i have the 10 ply. i don't mind the ride at all. they are amazing in the snow, and great off road in mud as well. no complaints, i will be buying these again.

Im in Jersey and I will be driving in wintery conditions when we have wintery conditions, otherwise normal winter.

I think he was saying that the BFG M/Ts are scary in snow, a very true statement!

There is no sipping on the M/T's and they are made of a harder rubber and it does not stay flexible in cold weather, you would virtually be driving with racing slicks.
