I'm considering 295/70R17 or 35x12.50R17 Toyo MTs. Will primarily be used for winter travel, secondary factors are road noise and only 1" headroom clearance in my garage on stock ATs.

And I hope no one thinks I'm a lunatic, but I live in NYC metro area. After watching the Katrina highway parking lots, I want to ensure that I can get out in ANY conditions--even if it means crossing some medians in a foot of snow....

the bfg all terrains are really one of the best and the mud terrains are good too, i had all terrains on a cherokee and did real well in a blizzard about 3 years ago. u can definately leave the stock on unless they are real worn out, but really the bfg are great tires i have had them on several jeeps and they are one of the best imo
