I'm putting a 6" lift kit on my H2 and I wanted to get some suggestion on some tires. Whats a good offroad looking tire that doesn't have that big knobby humming sound? I know a all terrain tire would have less humming sound than a mud tire. Does anyone know a good all-terrain tire that looks like a mud tire. Or a mud tire that isn't real loud? Please Help!!!

ok, I have had almost every off road tire out there...The Parnelli Jones dirt gripz are a great tire...I have tehm on MY Jeep JK, but they wear REALLLLL fast, I have 12000 miles on them now and have about 30% left. Any tire made by Interco (swampers,trxxus,ssr's) they are all louder than most...but air down the best. The best all around Mud tire I have used is Mickey Thompson MTZ's...they are as quiet as an all terrain and very good off road..They are on my h3 in my siggy pic.

Import Killer, is that the baja MTZ's? If so, they look real offroad for a quiet tire on the road.

What about Pro Comp tires? They have a xtreme all terrain tire that looks aggressive and quiet. Anyone had these before?
