Mud tires work for about 7% of the time you actually offroad, unless you wheel back east in that clay mud sloppy stuff 24/7. I just love the look of mud terrains on a jeep, so I have fell victim to the sickness. They are loud, noisy, obnoxious, loud, noisy, wear like shit if you DD your rig, are loud, cup if you don't rotate them like every 500 miles, loud, obnoxious, noisy, did I mention they look cool? I've been thru 3 sets of muds so far, and I need an intervention!
