Cant Decide

Well im going to be putting on a 3" PA body lift this weekend and cant decide which tires to run.. The 3 choices I have narrowed it down to is Mickey Thompson MTZ, BFG M/T, or the Cooper Discover STT. I will be running them in 33x12.5 on 15x8 eagle alloys (im running 31x10.5 Kumho's right now but wanna go bigger with after the lift) .. Any input or expirence with these tires would be helpful. Thanks in advance

It all depends on how you want to use them. Do you plan on mudding alot? or just driving and a little offroad action. I know its not a choice up there but BFG A/T's or goodyear wrangler MT/Rs would be the two I'd think about. But M/T's are a good choice up above.

My favorite MT are the Goodyear MTR's, but they are a bit pricey.

The new BFG KM2's are a good looking mud terrain also, but still kinda pricey.

I just got BFG AT's in 33x12.50x15's put on my truck yesterday. Only 700 bucks from Discount. I ran the same tire in a 31 before that and I loved the way the handled different terrains.
