Got to try out my 31 bfg AT's for the first time since I fixed my t-case...Went out to Bubbas and got REAL muddy....Mike you woulda been proud... The 31's worked pretty good but in the real deep sticky stuff they just couldnt handle it...It wasnt wet enough,just real gooey and they couldnt get clean...I was totally burried on the passenger side,over both wheels,it was SWEET! Had this guy in a huge Bronco tow me out..Anyway,definately goin with the MT's next time around...

im trying to decide between 32x11.50 AT or MT i will do a lot on road, but a lot of off road too. I want my tires to last a good while too which ones?

Depends...Lots of mud? or lots of trails and rocks and stuff like that?..If its not mud,and your doin lots of highway,I'd say go with the AT's theyll probably last you way longer too...Even 32 AT's will do pretty good in mud,just not the REALLY goeey sticky kind,has to be wet and watery for them to work...

The stuff I do is MUD. And some trails. Not much rock around here unless I got to the mtns.
