Opinions on M1009 Tires

I'll be the oddball. An old friend of mine got into the tire business, and set me up for a case of cold ones so he wasn't trying to sell me something for his sake. Told me about Falken Wildpeak A/T3W. Said his cousin got a set and they were great. I trusted him and got a set in 32/12.50/15 for my 1009. Absolutely love them! Drove them from NW Ia to ND and back, about 500mi each way. Not noisy, deeper tread than most, and have more siping for snow and ice travel than a lot of its competitors. Liked them so much I put them on my daily driver that used to wear BF AT K/Os. I think they get a bit better bite than the BFs in snow and ride a bit better. Bonus - more affordable as well. As far as wear, can't comment yet don't have enough miles on them. But the daily driver has only been put in 4x4 once this Iowa winter.

I ran BFG KM2 33x10.5x15 on a 74 K10. No rubbing anywhere and I never came close to getting stuck.

I have Treadwright Claw tires on my M1008 and am very happy with them. They are 10 ply bead to bead remoulds but work really well and fair priced.
