I've gotta make a small correction to the whole "My Mickeys rule in any condition" comment... if you run through a lot of mud, DO NOT purchase these tires!!!!!!!! I'm ashamed to admit that with 5.13's and being locked front AND rear, I got my @$$ handed to me by a stock open/open TJ on 33" thornbirds this weekend. THORNBIRDS!! :fart: Mtz's are phenominal in snow and on the rocks but they don't clean for $#% in the goopy stuff, which ends up making your truck go every direction that you don't want it to :fire: Also, Micah/Rookie/pretty much everybody was right: 17's are for street trucks :p: I bent a rim because I don't have enough side wall. I plan on getting some really aggressive muds on 15x9's for local mud-filled Maryland wheeling, and keeping my MTZ's for the snow and/or rock wheeling trips.


Here's a good example: my tread blocks would have already been cleared with my old BFG muds, what with being 10 feet out of the stream when this pic was taken:

Edit: Forgot to mention: I used the balancing powder in these suckers and with 13,000 miles on them they show absolutely no uneven wear! Plus, even though my RF rim is bent, there's no noticeable vibration or wobble. POWDER IS THE SHIZZLE, GUYS!
