Default im goin with 32" tires, AT or MT

I will most likely see pavement more than mud. I do NOT want to compromise the look. My question is, is the AT that much less rugged lookin than the AT?

Anyone with AT have pics??

I would say yes a mt looks much better than an at. At's seem to last longer on the road though.

I have 32 x 11.5 BFG AT's. They don't look too aggressive if that's what you really want. But they do well in pretty much everything except mud, where they turn into slicks real quick.

MTs look better
ATs wear better

Hybrids might be the way to go.

I was in the same boat as you are. I went with Wrangler DuraTrac's. They look pretty aggressive, although they're still an A/T. This isn't the greatest picture, but here they are:

Thanks. I love how the MT/R looks, however I wasn't sure how they would wear with all the on road driving that I do. I decided on the DuraTrac's just because they seemed practical, and all the reviews i've read have been excellent. Although i'm thinking i'll probably go with 33" KM2's when these wear out.
