Default Tire suggestions?

I need new meats. I think I'm going with 30s or 31s, but I need a good brand, long lasting, and tough looking tires, help?

I'd buy one BFG, one Goodyear, one Dunlop and a General. That way you get the best of all brands.

I'd buy a Interco tire for a spare.

BFG KM2s are really good for mud and rocks and are pretty quiet on the road, they come in a 31x10.5r15, which is what im going to put on my xj
they also look the part aswell

Google xj 31s, and click on images.
Look up offroaders.com, they have most tires listed with good pics and reviews, its at least a good place to start.

Have you checked out Treadright?

You can get 5 tires shipped to you cheaper than you can get 4 tires.

I want to try these next but I only drive 50 MPH (city).

After I put a lift on my jeep, I read tire reviews to find out what A/T tires I would get next. Bluebyu opinion is basically what the reviewers wrote. My xj is shod with them.
