265/75 16 FC 2 is, (fitted on 8" wheel) 805 high and 215 in tread width.
And, yes, the FC 2 eats the BFG all day every day.
If you want comparisons on size alone, the BFG seems to be a bit bigger
than the M/T when looking at same sizes...............Dave.....

The BFG A/T was a great tyre in it's day, but I think the market has overtaken it. Of those two, I'd take the Dick Cepek every time.

I've got DC's and they seem pretty good but I did get a sidewall puncture from a stick (only 120ks on them :x )and I reckon the soft new rubber didn't put up much resistance, but I'd go them over BFG's fer sure

Don't care what other tyre you're considering. BFG A/T's are a soccer mum tyre.

A mate has them on his 2001 Troopy and I must admit they are a great allround tyre. He has gone JUST about everywhere that we have with muddies. Seem to be wearing very well too....
