These do seem to have good reviews. I had never heard of them before but liked the review. CLICK

I've had them once before and so has my buddy on his dodge ram. They do very well off road, not outstanding but they do what they are supposed to do. Normally i would say get the local mud tire because if there's ever a problem or a flat, you can get them replaced immediately.

Get MTs if you don't mind some niose. If the niose will bother you, get ATs. It's that simple!! HTH!!

I would think that you should buy the tires that suit the type of wheeling you are going to do. Since you are doing a lot of street driving I would say go with an All Terrain If you are going to be hitting heavy mud get a Mud Terrain.

WHy the best of both worlds:

i will definately get m/t i used to the noise in every truck my family owns its like that. probab;y gonna stick with the mastercraft courser m/t just because it is cheap and still can do its job in the mud. unless i run across a better deal

I have these, they are noisy. mine are also studded. i got em really cheap.

I would get something used off of craigslist, preferably mounted on some wheels already. do some searchin i bet ya could find some. good luck !
