Good site to read reviews and what not..

Has the BFG and Hancook.. Mastercraft I know nothing about.. IMHO I think the BFG will be a better tire then the Hancook.

theyre not the best mud tires, but theyve been the standard for a while. a real dedicated mud tire would be a bogger or centipede.

For mud's I would say Goodyear Wrangler MT/R's or Firestone Destination M/T's They wear decent on the road. For A/T tires, I recommend the Bridgestone REVO's, 693/5's or Dayton Timberline A/T's
