I have owned 8 pairs of Grabber ATX, averaged 70, 000 mile per set. Rock crawling in Moab, hit the snowy mountains roads of Utah, Idaho and Montana, Over 100, 000 miles of overlanding in the last five year, and in 2023 we drove from the Grand Canyon to Flaming Gorge 100% off-road over some level 3 rated trails while pulling our mini trailer.
15 years and 8 set without a puncher or sidewall tear, great in the snow and sand but dose lack in mud, overall a great tire.

had a set of atx's on my duramax they never left me wanting for more, probably the best tires i ever ran in the snow and did well in the mud

Haven’t owned these newest versions yet, but I’ve owned a new set of original first gen KO’s (on a 2001 Tacoma) and a brand new set of grabber AT 2’s (on a 2010 Tacoma). Drove both all through the winter in Calgary Alberta and I can confirm the grabbers absolutely blow the doors off the BFG’s in the snow. Night and day difference. Can’t speak much for mud or off-road though, didn’t get a chance to do much of that to give a fair review. That was the older models though, not sure if these versions are similar or not.

Excellent comparison. I am happy with my K02s. However, I think that choosing the correct tire size is extremely important in regards to how the K02 performs. Basically I choose smaller, near stock size versions of the K02 and performance seems very good. However, in the past, using too large a version of the K02 resulted in less confidence, especially on wet roads. Just my 2cents.

A good comparison! I put KO2's on my jeep XJ (w/3" lift) and they are wonderful on the 4x4 trails in California. I put Grabber's on my Nissan Frontier PRO4X (w/2" lift) which I use to tow my teardrop on both pavement and moderate dirt trails and they have proved to be a good choice - though I tend to use my rear locker more often in my truck, even when I'm not towing.

The general last longer and i get better MPG, the BF algo great but a little heavy in comparison

[wannabeangler]

I have had many different brands of tires on my trucks through the years. KO2 is the newest. 90+% of reviews lean in favor of the KO2s that's why I bought them. Only time will tell. But I will say the driving style has a huge factor in how well tires perform.

great vid .... bought 275 65 r18 grabber atx for 2019 ranger. I'm good .

[mtower]

The Grabber is more economical but not the best.

[jessepoorman]

Had both. The generals will last way longer.

[Walker-D]

I had a different experience. My Grabbers wore out with less than 25% of the miles covered by the warranty. Peace of mind requires you to go with a different manufacturer who will stand behind their product. This company doesn't.

I just bought the BFG K02 to replace the Bridgestone Dueler AT Revo 3. Hopefully I like them.

[mikespies]

What did this guy get from BFG to make this vid?

[lavilorio]

Grabber de general es decir continental es un intento de imitación de la genial llanta bf goodrich k02 que para mi juicio sigue y seguirá siendo la mejor llanta todo terreno que existe no digo que la grabber sea mala pero yo se que no le llegua

[rudedogii]

BFG vs General, More like Michelin "French" vs Continental "German" tire manufactures. Who makes a better tire.

[toyotatacoma]

I've owned both, Grabbers didn't last half the life of the KO's. Neither in my opinion, are great in the snow, I live in the snow belt, and the best AT tire I have found in the snow thus far is the Hankook Dynapro rf10's which lasted me just over 65k miles. Don't see any mention of Hankook tires in your videos? I would suggest you review tires for the masses and not just the offroad world... More normal drivers than offroad drivers and even those offroad drivers spend more time on the road. That might be why you only have 3.5k subs.
