How do you use your Jeep? How many miles do you drive per year? Will it see snow and ice?

I like the look and I'm very busy a lot of the time but when I can go out... It's pretty intense

x2, For a DD, if you are looking for a tire that will last and can take a beating check out the Falken Wild Peak. I've wheeled with this tire in 7 states and I have been absolutely amazed with what the tire can do. These are also very quiet and smooth riding on the road.

I really like my 37 Toyo MTs for a DD. They are stiff and need to run around 28 psi street but are smooth and soft at that fill. They are no louder than stock rubi tires and work great on the trails. My vote all the way.
