grabber uhp or BFG g force
so im debating on which new tires to get? i have heard good things about the grabber UHP and i know that they are a whole lot cheaper, but i have SEEN great things with the new tread style BFG g force...i'll be going for a 295/40(45)r20 not sure yet and im just wondering what people have to say about the tires???

I know people who ahve ran teh grabbers and they loved them.I used to run the BFG's on my S-10 before i tossed the rims cause i didn't want to pay alot for tires on a beater.....i can tell you this they hooked and very well.Made a stock suspension truck handle like a pro er as good as a 93 S-10 can anyway....It was a 5 speed nothing speical but before those tires i could roast 1st and all of 2nd.I went with those and i could launch in the rain and only spin till about 15mph and then it would hook.IMO they grab and grab hard.
Even still though i might have to try those Grabbers cause they cost so much less and see how i like those beffore running straight into such a high priced tire again.

Grabbers
Been running them for about 10000 now. Seem to be alright a pain to ballance though. For the $$ though they cant be beat. Mine were made in the USA though. Some are made in Chekoslovakia too. If you go with anything above 265 theyre american or chezk. Mine ar 275-70-16.

see i was gonna go graber but then i couldnt find a tire place around here walmart or discount that carried them, then was leaning more towards the g-foce and i found the Kuhmo ecsta STX 295/45r20 and they sounded pretty good, at walmart the BFG's are 247 +9.97 per tire for road hazard and at discount they are like 280 but these Kuhmo's are 220/each plus 130 bucks for all tires road hazard so it seems like the expensive tire and cheap hazard at walmart would be a better deal with the BFG's, i just got the converter and i can hook for anything when i stab it and it jumps to 3400 with these eagle GTII's it would be nice to accomplish a good 60' time
