Default Types of Mud Tires
I have been looking at some mud tires for my truck. I really like the Firestone Destination MT but i am really just looking right now. If anyone has any other info about the tires or another brand i would love to hear it

How much do you want to spend? For mud grips, you can't go wrong with Buckshots for the price. Just don't get Goodyear Wranglers!!! Those are the absolute worst tires I have ever had and I had 2 friends that have had the same issues with them.

maxxix buckshots are good. I had gotten 40k out of mine on my toyota. the only thing was the noise. As Im sure with most mud tires, as they wore,the louder they got. Im mostly on the highways,so didnt enjoy the noise,so now I just go with a good treaded all terrain tire.

That's one thing I never had a problem with while I had Buckshots. I had 4 or 5 sets of them on 3 different vehicles but never could complain about the noise. I would also rotate them every other oil change and get them rebalanced about every 6 months.

recently i have had bridgestone dueler m/t, BFG all terrain t/a ko, goodyear duratracs

I really liked the BFGs, i know they make a mud terrain tire, may be worth checking out. I've had pretty good luck with goodyear. who knows.

a good set of all terrains and a warn winch should be standard on every truck, i need a another winch

Only bad thing is people constantly calling to ask for favors all the time.

My buddy had toyo open country a/t on his diesel and the tread wore quickly. I think if the tread would wear that quickly in all terrains than the muds would do the same.
