Default i need some tire ideas...i need a good M/T

ive gone all over this internet looking at different mud tires...there are a lot that i like..some that i dont...but i like off brand mud tires that not many know about...i like name brand too, but other tires like dayton MTs which a friend of mine has and they are swesome and mastercraft, companies like that..

id like to see some pictures if youve got any or can find any online...

here are some tires that im looking at...if you have any other ideas throw them out there

firestone destination MTs...thats the tire im most interested in
bridgestone dueler MTs
dayton timberline MTs if they still made them
dean wildcat EXTs
mud kings
gt radial adventuro

those are some examples of what i want to look for...im going to stick with 30x9.5x15s ..

any other ideas?

how much did you pay for them mounted and balanced? bc i see they are only 136 a tire...but im not sure if it would be worth it to have them mount and balance them or for me to take them to my friend who said he would mount them for me

OK I have a few options/Opinions

If this is just for off-road and not much daily driving I had the Super Swamper LTB's when I had the TJ and they were AWESOME off-road. But they are soft and will wear quick.

If you want good on road/off road I would look at the new Goodyear AT's. They look more like an MT but are listed as AT and I have heard some good about them. There is also new MT's that supposed to be good.

If you want everyday and wheeling and want to save some bucks then look at treadwright MT. I have the AT's right now and so far they are wearing great - only draw back is they drive really hard and my AT's came in a bit larger then they said.

ill have to check those threadwright MTs...and the LTB is what i originally wanted to get...i LOVE LTBs...they are one mean tire...but the smallest size is 31x11.5s, and i tried putting on my friends 31x10.5s and there wasnt room with just the 2 inch lift..so the LTBs are outa the question..sad tho..i love those..
