Default Buckshots?

I've seen a lot of awesome tires here that's kinda hard to argue with!!! But I didn't see anyone recommend Maxxis Mudder Buckshots. From my personal experience these are the only mud tires I've ever owned. I had several sets on a Z71 I had and never got stuck! Granted I've never been trail riding or rock crawling but I've had it up to the door handles in mud/water and made it out with no problems. Since I got my Cherokee I've been trying to decide what I want and I keep leaning back to those due to my success. I have no interest in rock crawling but want to get into trail riding. Anyone have any problems/experience with Buckshots on this end?

anyone have any experience with some Super Swampers and being a DD? do they make any of the ss tires that will actually wear pretty good on a good bit of road driving? i think the LTBs dont last long but i think ive heard the TSL Radials actually last a good while, any input on that? thanks

my friend had the Super Swamper Trxus m/t's on his ZJ got him thru quite a bit and they are supposed to last longer on the road, and they are sipped too so just a thought if your still leaning towards some Super Swampers

Out of the tires you listed I would either go with Pro Comp M/Ts, BFG KM/2s, Dunlop Mud Rovers, or Maxxis Buckshot Mudders. My friend has the Pro Comp M/Ts on his S10 and the work really well for him. I use to have some 31x10.50 Dunlop mud rovers on my XJ and they were alright. I do a lot of mudding so I need a tire that will not pack up very easy, and the dunlop werent the best for that. My dad has a set of KM/2s on his SJ and they work amazingly for him in the dirt, and they work really well on the street also. The maxxis mudders look a lot like the Dunlop mud rovers, but they are a lot cheaper so i'm guessin they dont dont last as long on the street

Love my Cooper STT's. I'm on my second set. First were 31x10.50 and I just got a set of 32x11.50's about two weeks ago.

The Kumhos look pretty b-a also.

I wanted to try someting different this time around, but after tons of research, I came to the same conclusions I did the first time. STT's are tough to beat.
