I actually saw these at Walmart!
Look nice and agressive for an A/T.

Nitto is coming out with a new M/T tire! The Trail Grappler!
Pretty aggressive looking tire

Also my Next choice for when i get M/T tires is going to be the Khumo Road Venture MT KL71
Really sporty M/T tire has great looks and from the over 100 reviews i have read only two people complain about them, but all of the other have nothing but great things to say about this tires.

A question that sometimes drives me hazy: am I or are the others crazy?

I would have to say that new Nitto is probably the nicest looking off road tire Nitto makes.
I am leaning towards the BFG MT2 for my next set of tires...I'd like to get the Maxxis Creepy Crawlers but can't seem to get over the extra cost of them.

i hear really bad things about the treadwear on yokohama geolanders
I like this duratrack from firestone,but after reading lot of reviews to blow off my eye balls i think they aren't a good choice for those you commute a lot of highway,as how eric just said they wears out pretty fast.
However if you are city driver these ones can be a good option though.
Dakar was just the begining.

One must evaluate their anticipated percentage of on-road vs. off-road travel when choosing between an A/T or an M/T. Many vehicle owner's mistakenly pick an M/T tire simply because it "looks good"; but afterwards gripe about the harsh ride, ill performance, tire noise and poor MPG.
In the State of PA where a person will encounter many types of terrain (dry streets, wet streets, snow, off-road dirt and mud); then, perhaps an A/T tire which has the capability to conquer all types of PA road conditions throughout the year should be chosen.
The very best choice for an A/T tire that can conquer all types of PA road conditions throughout the year while still being lightweight, quiet on the street, snowflake/mountain rated, and inexpensive to purchase is the world famous GENERAL - GRABBER AT2.
x3 - Keep in mind that any unidirectional tire will wear unevenly due to the inability to rotate the tires. My last car wore Michelin Pilot Sports in 225-45-18s in the front and 245-45-18s in back. Those tires are unidirectional and due to the staggered size you couldn't rotate them front to back or side to side. Uneven tread wear was horrible on that tire. And at $225+ PER TIRE, replacing them every 20K miles was enough to break the bank on an all-too-regular basis.
x3 on the new Trail Grapplers too. That's a bad *** looking tread design (even better than the Terra Grapplers IMHO).
