    I should have bought a 4wd Tacoma but instead i have a 2wd offroad Tacoma with rear locker.

    I need to upgrade my tires to get through the mud and sand at my camp. Give me your best tire recommendation.

    Thanks

    Lots of "best tire" threads on this site, with lots of good info and opinions. Might need more information from you before one could offer an opinion. What is your intended use? If exclusively around your camp site for mud and muck, and no highway use, then definitely a dedicated mud tire like BassAckwards ^^ posted. If you use it around your camp 5% of the time, and the 95% for paved road use, then my answer would change dramatically. Where do you live? Any need to run these in deep snow, ice, etc? If so, a severe-weather rated All-terrain tire may be a better choice than a dedicated Mud-terrain tire.

    Live in Florida, it will be a daily driver but will also need to cope with mud and sand. Our camp can get very wet with a lot of muddy potholes.

    Since you are going to DD it with a lot of paved road use, I would stick with a highly-rated all terrain tire. No need for me to express an opinion which one, there are plenty of good ones discussed on the site. I will throw one out, since there is already a thread on the first page: Falken Wildpeak AT see here: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/lt-or-p-rated-wildpeaks.516056/
