What a difference tires make

I had the General Grabbers AT's on the truck, good road tire, very poor off road. So I put a set of Adventuro MT's on, I know its kind of an off brand, but couldn't beat the price. The other day I was in a little mud, where the mud was just going in the rims, and the bottom of the pumpkin was dragging in a couple of spots. I was very impressed with these tires, they got me through with out any problems, a couple of times I thought I wouldn't make it out, somehow those tires kept digging till they found traction and pulled me through. I'm never going back to an AT tire again.

Here is pic of what they look like

I haven't been in mud, but 24"+ of snow, and my Hankook DynaPro ATm's did awesome. They are technically an AT tire but with a bit more 'grunt' in the tread. Thanks for the info & review! Always great to get real world feedback on how a tire does on one of our trucks!

My buddy had the Hankook tires on his dodge, very good tire he was happy with them.
The most snow I'm been in with theses tires would be around the 12'' mark, went through it like it wasn't even there. In snow our trucks are pretty good, but in mud, not so much being so heavy really doesn't help
