The BFG KM2s will likely test that one. 40k on mine already, will easily get 60-65k with the amount of tread left.

The BFGs and Toyos are more expensive simply because they are superior to the other tires. Not that the others are bad, many are excellent tires for mud and offroad intention like what they are designed for. But when you can have that kind of offroad performance and still net 60k miles out of them, you pay a small premium.

Mud Grapplers are great if you want a headache after 20 minutes on the highway.

Really? I don't think mine are all that loud... they don't inhibit my ability to listen to the radio or talk on the phone (bluetooth through the speakers). By no means are they quiet, but I've heard much louder LOL. What else can you expect from such an aggressive tread though?

I have to agree with you. I love my mud grapplers 37s lol. They have that nice hum going down the road and im almost at 25k on the front pair and they still have at least half tread.
