Default Rubber suggestion

Need some suggestions for a new set. We go off road often in WTX, primarily the Terlingua Ranch area. The roads (1200 miles of unimproved dirt roads) although maintained by the ranch, are rough, rugged, and very rocky. We have a 1 hour, 15 mile trip to get to our property. Having to fix a flat is no fun....been there done that. Our roads compare to Old Ore Rd and Black Gap in Big Bend Nat Park.

With all that in mind I need something with geat sidewall protection that can take some serious punishment. Any suggestions appreciated.

Have you looked at getting the Nitto Terra Grapplers, or the Mickey Thompson Bajas, both good tires with pretty good sidewall protection.
