My .02
Toyo Open Country MTs 35x12.50 R20
I really like these tires. I can't imagine having a quieter/smoother riding MT. The price tag on them is steep, no doubt, but its an excellent DD MT tire.

Always better w/ a truck
305/55/20 Goodyear Dura Tracs
Awesome looking tires. Not any louder than my BFGoodrich AT KOs. Several pounds lighter than any comparable tire. Have a high snow rating....which I plan to put to the test this weekend I'll post back.

33" BFG AT KO's on my '04 FX4 SCREW... LOVE 'EM!!! They seem to work very good in all the conditions I put them through.... quiet, look good but not to aggressive, and wear unbelievably!! Picking up my 2010 FX4 SCREW on Friday and have already had the dealer change them to the same, only 20's!!

33x12.5 18 Nitto Mud grappler.
Would recommend if you are going 4x4ing a lot in mud or skag and are partially or totally deaf. These tires have taken me everywhere so far. Havent had much time in the sand but soon enough. Look great and perform well in the sticky stuff but they are loud. I ran the procomp x terrain before and they were loud but this sounds like a single prob airplane following you down the highway. I just turn up the stereo and it all goes away.

I found these tires the other day and I wanted to see if anyone took the chance on buying these.

Put these Toyo MT's 295x70x17 on and have around 12k miles on them. They do great on the highway and better in the rain then I expected. I don't go offroad except in some wet pasture land we have around here and in the sand close to the Gulf. No problems with any offroad conditions so far. They are pricey and a little noisier then I expected but they look like they can go 50 to 60k miles easily. The tires are close to 34 inches tall and seem to be a great fit on my leveled truck on 17x9 wheels.

Ok, I have Toyo HT 255 65 17, stock tire size. I am at 70k miles on them and will replace soon. I drive mostly highway, but I do tow a boat and camp during the summers. This has been a perfect tire!!! I have never had a problem and have gotten way more miles than the warranty. If I stick with a highway tread, I would be a fool not to run these again..

315/70R17(34.6 inches) Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs
Already put about 7k on them for the last 2months(i do allot of traveling)Still look brand new and tread also looks brand new.
Handles great in the mud and not once have i got stuck when taking it thru some decent mud pits.Cleans very nicely i think
Wet traction is great,feels very solid and grippy.
Dry traction is also great and no lagging in the road break.
Side walls are very durable as i have had them thru some sharp jagged rocks and no puncture at all.Have been thru allot of fresh gravel spinning the tires and not one cut or puncture on them
Road noise is decent.Tread wear is even
I'm very excited to see how they handle in the snow(another couple of months and i will report back with how they do in the snow,slush)
Very happy with them.Some ppl say that Goodyear isn't a good tire overall and that might be,but i really think that with the Duratracs,Goodyear has done a very good job overall in what they set out to perform when designing this tire.I know a few jeeps that are running the Duratracs and like them very much and even better off road.
