I have Nokian Vatiiva MT 33/12.5r15 Not a bad tire at all. A little but noisy on the Hwy but good tread life.

Google will bring up tons of info on any tire you might be interested in with reviews from people like the guys/girls on this forum. All that without the wait.

Goodyear wranglers look good but aren't the greatest. Pro Comp MT or extreme AT are sweet. I have BFG AT n they are good but they are a few years old. The new BFG AT are crap no snowflake n don't last.

i've had the old wrangler mt/r's on 4 different vehicles and have been very happy with them. they were quiet for a mud terrain and lasted pretty good if you kept them roatated. Just put on a set of 33 inch wrangler mtr kevlars on my xj, and they are quieter than the old ones. Look mean, obviously can't comment on wear yet. I don't think I've ever had a flat with any of my mtr's, and I live on gravel and go off roading a fair amount.

I love my BFG KM2s great rock crawling tire. had TSLs on it before and I will never run them again way to loud for the little bit of street driving I did. My next set is going to be Creepy Crawlers, Trepadors or Krawler KXs

I was thinking of the Creepy Crawlers they look like they have a great tread pattern, but then I saw the price. Ouch!
Looking at the Pitbull Rocker Radials 35x12.50r15s

im running themickey tompson baja claw. tested true. only lots of mud so far, no rocks yet...

Im running km2's on my mazda truck and they havent gotten me stuck yet. those are a great tire. I did however blow through the sidewall on my pass side through a deep ditch, and my drivers side comming back through the same one that was an experience
