Stopped in my local BFG outlet to see what's up with the AT's. No more
discounting seems to be the main thing. The "new" tire is BFGATITA.KO
mspn.22794 which is supposed to be priced out at $89.95 "out the door". The
difference is wider lug spacing, a rib along the sidewall (like the old
Mercedes Michelins) and a different rubber compound for increased wear. I
paid less than $200 4 years ago for mine (a brother in law deal) so it will
be tough to chump up for the new ones but what else is any good in that size?
