well like peopel are saying it all depends on the terrain. I preffer the mt because of the mud and steep lose stuff where i wheel. I also liek the sidewall tread on the mt as well. As someone metioned the mt sucks on wet pavement. I have the 33's on my 4runner and even with a stock 22re and 4.10 gears they will spin really easy on wet sometimes not even under hard acceleration. If mud is for you then get the mt if sand and gravel road type stuff then at. Id recomend gettign them from costco if you have one around they are the cheapest and have an amzing tire warranty. I ripped a sidewall after only 2000 miles and i got new tires.

They do, but A/T's are much much much worse... sandblasting vs chiping...

i've had my M/T's throw some pretty giant rocks up and hit my elbow while it was out the window. it was pretty painful. I mean, it was upwards of the size of a ping pong ball, and i wasn't going very fast

a/t, better wear, great traction. what else is there I have procomp mud terrains on my rig, and cooper discoverers on my d.d., and i really like both, however mud tires wear quickly and arent as good in snow or rain.

at's

i have at's on 2 out of my 3 vehicles...i lovem, but the previous posts are right..you go through gravel, and itll fling it all over your side if they stick out at all..but unless you get spacers your 32's wont stick out far. im on the road bout 90% of the time in my yota, and 100% in my yukon, so i dont worry often bout them becomin mud slicks. i have run them in a creek before and did fine, but deep mud is a no go down here, we get gumbo mud in dixie.
