    Of course I’m trying to make a point

    pirelli scorpions are the rock crawling tire of the future.

    wasn’t it obvious?

    Ummmmmm I saw the Pirelli MTs in action at windrock and well surprised the shit out of me. I would never buy them. First time I have ever seen anyone running them.

    I’m likely jumping on the Patagonia MT bandwagon for the next set, so we will see how much I hate those

    I have found it really easy to find the best of anything you need, just ask someone what they are using and 99.9999% of the time it will be the best.

    Inexpensive, light weight, very aggressive, but handle well on the road. You need the cooper MTP from discount tire direct.com

    Had them they were OK great in the mud, ok on the rocks, cold weather road manners were a little wonky till they warmed up, Balanced well, pretty quiet, needed to be babied a little more than other to keep from doing the MT tire cupping/feathering. You have them too so. I liked them for the 6 months or whatever I had them for.
    They seem like a really good option for the hybrid style that leans more towards MT than AT. From talking to some guys that have run them here in the real sloppy stuff they clog good. Out west man those things are uber impressive.

    Treadwright guard dogs. They’re fine. Do plenty well off-road, and are dirt cheap. Just don’t ride great, I think they’ve started cupping, and the sidewall tread is lacking.

    MTs gotta keep them rotated often no matter the brand some more often than others.

    Yep, I don’t even hardly have miles on these lol. I’ve also only ever had 1 other set of 35” mud tires and they were on my 89 Toyota pickup that weighed absolutely nothing. Hankook dynapro mts. Those were phenomenal tires on that truck.

    The best offroad tire I ever ran, was the old school BFG MT. Loud as shit on the road, but were some grave diggers off road. I wish they still made that tread pattern, but they have evidently been replaced by the KM2 and KM3.

    I like the look of the km3 just not price, friend at work had km2 and got no miles out of them. I liked general grabbers, thought about trying their x3. But for the money may go with the Patagonia’s super affordable.

    I probably wouldn’t get what I gave again. Great tire, but not the best for around here.

    My Jeep neighbor has them and they are loud as shit and he got no miles out of his. Around 30K and they were bald already, I guess that's why they are so inexpensive. I like the looks of those Generals too.
