bfg muds rock, last 55,000 on road--- goodyear mtr rock --last 40,000
super swampers perform best offroad but are softer rubber - they get eaten up quicker with road use-

I agree with 95flareside. I would go with the BFG MudTerrain. They have a solid reputation behind them and they cost less than super swampers. If you did most of your driving off-road than I would say go for the super swampers. But since you don't the BFG's will give you a decent ride, good milage, and they will not have as much road noise

I drive 98% on the street w/ my BFGs and are great. The new version they came out with last year is much better then the old one. I'd buy them again and plan to.


Primary rig is Green Thunder:
95' F-150 XLT 4x4, 302, 5 spd, MSD 6A, Flowmaster Exhaust, Sunroof, Clear corners w/ Diamond headlights, CD player with 2 10" subs and some 32" BFG Muds .

Check out my Gallery for a look-see.
