get some tsl sx's and groove the for the rocks. they are a good crawlin tire and should do pretty well in the mud. But boggers suck in the rocks and horrible street tires. maybe some iroks but i bet the tsl's would do better. :twocents:

Good luck replaceing them in under a year!  :haha:

If you driving on the road, you may want to get a tire that will last a while, if money is not an issue, i know some people that are happy with boggers all around once they groove them.

If it sees time on-road, get a pair of Super Swamper SSR/TSL Radials.  They're about the best all-around option that I know of.

Other than that, BFG MT are great for DD, though a bit pricey.

Yeah, but they aren't road-friendly.  Or rather, roads LOVE them and want to be friends with them as quickly as possible.   :smooch:  At $500+ for tires these days :ack: , having to replace tires every two years is a pain.

Might consider running two sets.  You should be able to pick up a decent set of used AT's or a harder compound MT's(if you have to have the look) for a few hundred $, and keep the softer treaded IROK's or swampers for trail days only.
'90 black X-cab mod'd 3.0, 33's/4.88's, rear ARB, custom bumpers, sliders, safari rack, etc.
'91 Blue X-cab 22re, 35's/5.29's,Truetrac front, ARB rear, dual cases, and custom Safari flatbed, bumper, interior.

At least for crawlin the BFG Crawlers are great!!!  It is amazing the confidence you get when your stuff works right.  It is also fun to see your tires stick and your buddies not stick.  You know makes you smile inside a bit.
