Tires for sled pullin'

Hey everyone! along with the edge juice w attitude and 5 inch exhaust system on my 03' Duramax, she also sports 285/75/16 BFG All Terrains...i dont want to switch them out just yet since they are brand new. But will i still get enough hook up in 4WD to pull a respectable distance? thanks

Lots of people run with AT's around here along with myself, and they hook up just fine.

the bfg's are a excellent tire for traction in softer dirt but on a little harder dirt such as clay a softer tire such as the bridgestone dueller revo has better traction,but you should just fine on that tire.just my 2 cents$

I ran A/T's also last season, they will work fine at your power level.
