Mickey Thompson MTZ
I'm looking for a good off road tire with high on road mileage (if one exists!) I like the aggresive looks of the MTZ, and the price isn't bad. Has anyone heard or experienced how they perform off road and/or on road? Once again, thanks for the input!

Love em. They are a mud tire so there is some noise on the road, about the same as the BFG KM's actually. I have good traction on the road, off road they work great, good traction in mud, dirts, rocks, and snow. I have found them to be a great all around mud tire.

Ive been thrilled with the MTZ performance. In the mud they are unreal I went through a few half decent pools of mud and the Jeep didnt even flinch. On road they arent really noisy or rough that I noticed. In hopes of adding tread life I keep the pressure high (around 37) and I dont feel like they are onboxious to drive, and I do alot of highway miles right nwo commuting to school (60 miles/day). Ive only got about 1500 miles on them so I cant give you any info on tread life, although past reviews I have read said the tread life wasnt very good (25-30k miles max). Either way I am happy with them, and depending on what the tread life ends up being I think I would go with them again. I think the 5 tire rotation will help quite a bit.
