getting either mud terrains or all terrains i like the look of the mud terrains but i have heard that they ride terrible and you would not want them if you drive your jeep as your daily driver. so my question is are they really that bad. thanks in advance

I'll never run another BFG Mud Terrian on a DD...

Once they wear in some, they get scary bad on icy, snowy wet roads....

It was a VERY eye opening experience as the BFG AT, is AWESOME in the same conditions.

I beg the differ. I drive around in 2wd with a locked rear and have 0 issues on snow/ice. Yeah, its slippery but unless you're driving with snow tires nothing will grab like glue. You can always throw a few sipes in em

Personally, there are much better M/T tires on the market. I know its preference to some on which tires they choose. But the ultimate decision is up to you.

I run BFG mud terrains on my 2 door, and I have BFG all terrains on my 4 door. To be honest there is no differance IMO, the MT's clean out better in the mud. On the street there is no differance.

I am also from Michigan
