Those tires are worthy of your moniker and in my opinion, THE BEST damn mud tire next to a bogger.
The set I had lacked ANY on-road manners, hydro'ed like greased snot when raining and wore pretty bad. However,
I loved them then and would have 'em on my H3 now, were it not for all the pavement miles I drive. I honestly don't know
if I would put them on a daily driver.........I had the 14.50 X 38's prior to upgrading to my 18 X 44 Gumbo Mudders,
Perhaps tire size was a factor as well.
Hopefully someone else who has owned a set will pop up and either validate my opinion or offer up another view.
Have you considered TrXus MT. For a great all around tire with a swamper linneage....I'm diggin mine as much as they dig the mud.
Great on-road manners, killer in the rain and the pics you have seen of my truck give you some idea of how well they do in the mud. Just a thought......
They go all the way up to a 12.50 X 37 I believe.

I don't think I looked at the ones you mentioned... or they stopped at 16.5 wheels... that is my biggest problem so far...

I was originally gonna get some Mickey's but thanks to 4WP's, that deal fell through. The TrXus MT's were in the warehouse,
so I opted to give them a try. Since I do so much Highway driving, I was worried most about wear and how they did in
the rain on the interstate. They work great. Wear has been nominal (I rotate and re-balance at every oil change) and
I've never had a tire handle a down poor as well as these do. They are very happy in the mud, maybe dig a little to well
in the sand if you overly apply the skinny pedal and the few rocky situations I've been in....Not bad.
Hit HUMMER DRIVER up as well, he is running a set on his and had em out to Barnwell last year.

How do you personally think they compare to the BFG M/Ts....
