Right on. I drive pretty slow around town, and I do little to no rock crawling, but I'm on trails, in mud, and on god awful gravel roads all the time. If the MTZ's handle the same as the ATZ's on pavement, that's what I will go for. If I get 40k instead of 50k...who cares. I'll probably have another vehicle to play around with in 2-3 years anyways. I'm sticking with a Mickey Thompson or a Cooper because where I'm from there is a Cooper plant that employees a lot of good people and is a great place to work. I don't think they are necessarily better products than others, but I will support them. I've also had terrible customer service experiences with Goodyear, so they are probably a no go.

If I remember correctly, I believe WOL said that Cooper makes ProComp...so, if you are gunning for Cooper or ProComp, you get the best of both worlds!

Watch Falkens JK Experience videos and see the WildPeak A/T's in action. Sold after watching all their videos.

I love my Mickey MTZ's for my daily driver, trails etc. As far as my winter set up I bought my Goodyear Duratracs from Discount Tire Direct ..... excellent customer service.... In pics below my Mickey MTZ's are on the Mickey classic rims and my duratracs are on the all black winter set-up
