A friend of mine bought a set of MG's when they first come out, and drove on them for about 2 weeks then gave them to me and went back to yokohama geolander MT's. I threw them on, and after a day on the street and a day in the dirt I too gave them away. I felt they where terrible tires made to "LOOK COOL" However this was when they where NEW on the market. I Know first prodution can be a bad thing. I also had THEE FIRST! set of Mickey thompson baja claws in Utah. They where even worse tires and being so new they didnt want to compensate me like they did for later customers when they discovered their rubber compound was wrong. My baja claws only lasted MAYBE BIG MAYBE 8000 miles they sucked in mud sucked on street sucked on slickrock and sucked in snow, HOWEVER they was awesome in sand. Only other thing I can say about the mud grapplers is a guy I work with has a set of REALLY bald ones on his dodge cummins and he says its the worst money he has ever spent.
Honestly from an off road perspective I dont think you can get a better tire, for the money, than a superswamper TSL, for all around tires I run big o XT's, Some people dont like big o but my dad has always used the local store and so have I and they all know me and treat me really well. As for the tires, they do everything I need and the warrenty is fabulous.
