I don't know if the 'Claw is, strictly speaking, a "mudder". It really has uses in a variety of terrain. BlazedB2 on here has them on his old Bronco II and they seemed to do really well in mud though.
Only problem with the 'Claw is lack of siping. Not good for slick road handling.

as far as on the road, they are loud, very loud. they are wearing well too, they have probably 5-7000 miles with little wear to show. but i only drive to offroad sites, not my DD. hope that helps some?

but didnt you say you cant even get those for 15 inch rims?
I havent heard anything about the STTs yet. cooper isnt exactly a wheeling powerhouse tire company...
