I can't really recommend any tires but he ones I have used in the past. The BFG is the best all around tire and the thornbirds were the most aggressive tires but the thornbird will vibrate your fillings right outta your teeth. Cooper makes a great tire which I have on my Z71 pick-up and have been pretty pleased but again they are compromise tires like the BFGs are.

 

I like the kumho road venture m/t they weren't real loud on the street and would still get the job done in the woods.some of my friends are running the m/t mtz on there jeeps a really like them also .

 

have any one ever heard of the mastercraft courser my local 4x4 shop recommended them

 

never used a mastercraft tire at all..I can tell ya my next tire purchase will likely be BFG AT's I don't think I will get any MT's again till the jeep isn't a daily driver...

 

did the bfg m/t make alot of noise

 

Mastercraft's are just another of the seemingly 40 billion tire brands made by Cooper. The Courser M/T has an identical pattern to a Dakota M/T(the Pep Boys in house brand). But all of these off-brand M/T's have a pretty similar pattern.

Expect similar results... 40k miles on the road. Nothing outstanding off-road, but no huge deficiences except wet rock.

I have Firestone Destination M/Ts. I love them. I was very suprised how well they hold the road evening in wet road conditions. They are a bit more money Around $200 for a 33x12.5

 

I also have Firestone Destination M/Ts they came on my jeep when i got it and they are great, but i am going bigger. Was going to get them again but they are pretty pricey, i went with the BFGoodrich A/T's also really expensive but i got a great deal on some slighty used ones

 

so what would you recommend then my problem is it needs to be cheap i really aint got that much money coming in but i need to be able to keep up with my friends

 

If the 4X4 shop recommended them i would probably trust them

 

I was checking out a general grapler 2 all terain they seem to be about 40 bucks cheper a tire the the bfg's and they have a good look
we sell alot of generals at my work they seem to be a good tire

 

ive used boggers to get back and forth to school and run errands, i wouldn't reccomend it though.

 

Different class of tires though.. The BFG A/T is a really good tire for an A/T.
The Destination M/T is more expensive, but it is a M/T. The tread is ALOT more aggresive than any A/T.

 

Aggressive usually = noisey and bone jarring too!!!

 

i looked at that destination tire, to expensive. the grapler m/t is looking good and i also talked to a guy and he mentioned Green Diamond Icelander MT
