Angry tire selection????

hello fellas.... I have been tireshoppiong now way longer then i should have been. I have made up my mind and changed my mind so many times. But bear with me..I just have some questions on tires and procomp in general. I know that i want a wide tire that wll come out past the fender...dont ask whyi dont know i just love that look for some reason. I also know that i want something that can performe reasonably well on the road as a everyday driver..but is still aggressive, so of course i have been looking at the nitto grapplers and the toyo open country 325/60 r18. only probelm is that i dont know just how well these tires will do in mud. Also i have heard bad things about tread life from these two tires. any advice would help... also any knowledge of how pro comp mudders perform on road?? Thanks again

no procomp

hey, i had procomp m/t's, 305'sfor almost a year, and they are gone! i replaced them this thursday with swamper trxus m/t's. put a little weight in your bed and they hula dance. in the mud....well, i'd had better tires. when i changed the tires i looked at the procomps and every tires was missing at least 2 lugs, ripped off, and i don't do rock climbing lol the trxus seems to be good so far, nice looking tire, i had the ssr's before and they were awesome in the mud! but i wanted to try a different tire this time. good luck with your tires man!

You have to remember that tires are always a compromise. You won't find a tire that performs like a Bogger off road and rides like a passenger tire on the highway. What do you do mostly?
