Tire Help!!

I just blew one of my wildcat tires and now I would like everyone's input on some new tires. I do moderate wheeling, I dont wheel every weekend but when I do I like to do some crazy wheeling. Not too much mudding more of rocky, silty dirt with a bunch of roots and stuff. But iam in washington so it does get really wet. I' am looking for quiet tires on the highway, at least quiter than my wildcats, but still really agressive looking and good performance off road. Thanks for any suggestions

I think I paid 65$ each for mine and shipping was about 60$ for 5 of them. No complaints so far. The balanced out very well, are quiet on the road (well quieter than any of the BFG muds that I've ever owned) and I believe the warranty is for 30,000 miles but I'll have to look to verify that. I can tell you that those little 31's when aired down to 10 pounds get one heck of a grip on the terrain.

Sounds good to me, My mom said she would help me with getting new meats, since my front ones are bald
So I figured I would go this route to save the both of us some dough


Edit, These are the ones I would like :http://treadwright.com/Tires-31x10_5...ULTRA-P13.aspx

Must have got yours on sale or something

I purchased these. I think from looking at the tread pattern of mine and the one that you want that your's will be much quieter.

When I got mine they were cheaper than the current sticker price although I can't remember if it was a sale or what. *shrug* Either way 80$ +/- for a new 31" tire is a darn good price. Oh and I read the warranty stuff and they are covered for 2 years or 24,000 miles. Not much of a warranty but not bad.
