Pro comp Extreme all terrain would suit you best. agressive pattern and up to a 40,000 mile life, and still quiet.

My vote goes for Toyos, either ATs or MTs.
Im running the 325 ATs right now, and I cant decide if I want to go with MTs when I step up to 37s, or stick with the ATs...

My 37" BFGs were wearing quite well, but need religiously regular rotation to keep them from cupping.

You might ask member XLR8R how he likes his Toyo 37 MTs. His have worn down pretty quick. He carries around a lot of weight but still. I don't think he has 20K on them yet (maybe he can chime in)...and they are pretty well worn out.


I am trying the new BFG 35'' MT KM2s. So far im happy with them at about 4000 miles. To early though to make a recommendation for long life yet. But they come in 37'' too.

My toyo MT's have lasted 30K so far and they can still make it through winter. I am very very hard on tires and this is the most miles ive ever put on a set.

Seriously I drive hard, and live on a crooked mountain road and take every turn 15mph above regulatory reccomendation. Also done my fair share of donuts and driving sideways in fresh powder.

Im blowen away that they have worn so well.

Most other toyo owners report the same.

I really like the 37" Toyo MTs, but not for the wear rate!

Tread life on the front should be 50K miles, but the rear is half that - bit worse back there than the BFGs we've run for the last decade. I've observed that the AAM's Torsen differential grabs harder than the clutch packs in the Dana during "normal" driving...

I've been running the 37" Toyo MT's for about 20,000 now and have had good luck. They seem to be wearing good and have minimul road noise compared to the Super Swampers I am used to. I would recomend getting them center siped.

And thats with rotating your tires?

Also, you are usually loaded down quite a bit right? Do you think thats affecting the wear any?(In the rear anyway)

Yeah, thats my hesitation with the Toyo MTs, I havent really heard many complaints on the mileage, I really have heard anything one way or the other.

So far my Toyo ATs seem to be wearing great, 15k on them so far and barely show any wear...(only rotated them once thus far)

Post up a follow up in a few months on the KM2s, im curious how theyll do in the long run, they look like a nice tire, but I want to let people try them out for a little while before I make up my mind on them.
