Default Which 37in tire for mud and clay?

I'm looking for a good mud tire because that's all my jeep will prolly ever see down here in the south. It's not my dd and will never see over 60mph I will also never drive over 10000 miles in it a year. I've tried to list all the big names in tires but if I left one out please list it. Also my jeep will hardly ever see rocks unless I make a road trip up to Arkansas.

I don't usually speak in absolutes but for mud, there is no better tire than a Bogger- period. The other tires previously listed do OK but a Bogger is designed specifically for mud. They have deeper lugs and more open spacing to help clean the tire out. The side lugs really work in the deep stuff. They're not bad in rock but aren't good on wet sidehills due to their design.

Yeah sorry about that man I tried to create a poll and list the tires but my phone wouldn't let me for some reason. Here are the tires I was gonna post though.

1. Goodyear mtrk
2. Pitbull rocker
3. Irok radial
4. Toyo mt
5. Procomp x mt
6. Nitto mud grappler
7. Bfg km2
8. Other

Sorry for the poll not working all these tires would either be in sizes of 37/1350/17 or 37/1250/17.

Pitbul Rocker Radials get me through the mud and clay and offer alot of traction when your in off camber situations.. unlike boggers which act more like a ski.
If you are in a situation like myself who runs very narrow very muddy and slick trails look for a tire that good tread gaps between lugs all the way across the face of the tread. I have had good results with Xterrains, Rockers, and my buddy has a set of MTZ's that seem to really work and clear well.
