Mickey Thompson MTZ's vs Toyo Open Country M/T's

I will be buying one of these tires (37"-38") this summer and wanted to know which one has better traction and what the average life is. these will be on my dd, but they will see a lot of snow, sand, rock and some mud. The Mickey's




and the Toyo's.
thx.

I have the Toyo's in 265/75's. I had them siped, and they do great in the snow but are horrible when it comes to ice. We had a couple scary moments last night coming back from the coast. A big system moved in, dumping a large amount of snow on the roads, NBD. The area's that were plowed got really bad, as the residual snow froze by the time we got there, creating a 87 mile sheet of ice on the Freeway for the drive home. Praise be to God for my traction control and VSC.
