nitto mud grapplers or buckshots are the best choices never really messed with the toyo ones but my bud did have some of the all-terains and they didnt last long at all maybe 40k and then he had to but new ones

Most of the more aggressive mud tires don't last as long as street tires.
Really aggressive tires are lucky to get 40K miles on them.
If you get more, then you did good.

I have the Mickey Thompson Baja ATZs on my 1/2 ton Z71 and I really like them. I do alot of driving and they are holding up really well. I have about 40,000 on them and they aren't even close to being worn down.

it's not hype either, if you spend a lot of time on the road they are top notch for gas or diesels. i was going to get a 2nd set but for my 18" wheels they were 325 a tire.
