Default New tires, what to get?

Right now I'm running MT 33 x 12.5 I think on 18s
My back ones are pretty worn out and its time to get new ones.

My jeep is a dd and i need some tires that will last on pavement and are good in the mud

Btw what are your opinions on re treaded tires

I have another version of it. The Goodyear Wrangler Territory available only in Canada through Canadian Tire (Canadian store) and they have been awesome in any conditions.

I have Cooper STT's. They are ultra quiet on the street, look super aggressive and kill the mud like nobody's business. On the street, it's almost like driving a car. They're a really good tire.

For cost saving, check out Mud Kings. They're made by one of BFG's subsidary companies (Cavalier or some thing like that). Awesome tires in the mud and on the road.

I am dealing with thin sidewalls on some other tires. It sucks. How do you know these are thick?

X2 kuhmo mud terrains (KL71) are great! Have had 4 sets!! Hope they keep making them!!! Cooper STT's are good too. If rotated correctly, you will get the most miles out if the kuhmo's...by far! Outstanding tires.

I have 2 sets of re-treads and they are awesome especially for the price. Other than that I'd say mastercrafts or coopers.
