Mud tires

[RotorHead695]

I run the Wrangler Duratracs. I've always felt like they were the most aggressive AT without going to a full MT. I had them in about six inches of mud on my last hunting trip when the high desert moon dust changed to mud with some heavy rain. They worked great. They are also about the best AT for snow and ice too.

My Tacomas were all little tanks with this tire as well and what we also run on our Jeep.

im running toyo MTs on mine and also have used them on multiple trucks in the past, after trying multiple brands of mts i ended up using the toyo MTs ever since trying them one time, ive had them lats almost 80k miles on another previous gmc sierra denali pickup, i just rotated them every oil change to even the wear, if you dont roate them the fronts wear out alot faster and will get uneven wear and thats when you will have loud road noise, if they get rotated the road noise if very minimum and i can barley hear it. for the raptor i like to run these tires at about 38 psi for good road comfort, anything above 45 psi on these tires even though you can go all the way to 80 psi on them i wouldnt go over 45 because it will be very stiff and feel all the small road imperfections as these are ten ply thick sideway tires. ive never deflated them driving through mud or other off road types, but if your in some sand or other areas where deflating them will benefit you then i would do it if you have the means to inflate them on the drive back. hope this helps/

just confirming. The model is Toyo Open Country M/Ts?

Yes. And a little tip, Toyos due to price and size sometimes don't move quickly. What I'm referring to is the date code. Before you spend your money, make sure wherever you're buying them from have newer date codes. I wouldn't take anything under 20 / 25. Never buy new "old" rubber.

This is excellent advice. Tires do age out and for some reason in America, we don’t talk about it.

Great point. I wouldn’t have thought of that. Thanks !

Not sure if they have been mentioned yet or not, but have you looked at Mickey Thompson Baja ATZ P3’s?
Pretty good on the highway and have done pretty good in the mud I have been in this year.

These sure look good in person so I'm half tempted to try them on my next run.

yep, i normally dont pay attention to this when buying from big companies that move alot of tires , but i did make sure they were newer when i bought 2 sets of them last year. i have had some expensive michelin summer tires sitting a couple years in the garage for my gtr and they used to feel soft but now after sitting in the warehouse 2 years they feel so stiff its almost like they turned to hard drift tires .

I run the 37" KM3's and love them. They are great in the mud and sand. We don't get much for snow where I live so I haven't tested them with that yet.
