BFGoodrich A/T's SUCK!
NEVER go in mud with them, youll be lucky if you dont get stuck, but its just my opinion.....and they suck on small rocks too....

any A/T will suck in Mud and in anything thats not dry pavement, the tread is not designed to go through mud. Its too compact and once you get mud in them its not coming out!

Mickey Thompsons are probably the way to go but MTR's are also good.

when i first got them, they were sweet. but im starting not to like them.
they are the best tire for what they are made for, but i have gotten more into going off road and they are not the best. awesome in snow and rain tho, and i would still recc. it to a street truck
