Got the new Pro Comp 31x10.50 AT's on the Durango today. The drive home on the highway was a BIG improvement over the stock Goodyears. These things really grab the road. Went through a big ditch (about 5 feet high steep sloping sides) as well. Went up and out with no tire spin and no problems and stayed in 2wd. Not a real challenge as it is only soft ground with thick green grass but this same ditch required 4wd with the Goodyears with a bit of wheel spin as they slipped on the green grass and could get no traction at all. I am VERY impressed with these so far. Time will tell as I see how they do in much more demanding terrain and on wet roads. I also picked up my new 33x12.50 Pro Comp X-Terrains as well for my Dak, I hope to be similarly impressed with them.

How worn down were your old BFG's that made you decide to swap?

Well, so far the X-Terrains off road performance has been nothing short of amazing. They just grab the ground and wont let go. Still need to run out to the beach for a good sand test. Will see what kind of on road manners they have during the commute to and from work this week.
