i drive my xj a lot on the road, tire wear is a big factor for me. i run 33x10.5 BFG all terrains, and i can't complain on how they handle in the street on snow. and when i off road i air them down and they seem to do ok, they need some speed to clean out, but for the all around driver they are a good tire if you spend a lot of time on pavement.
my bro has the goodyear m/t and he loves them, they are quiet and provide a ton of traction.
my next tire will be the trxus m/t, the goodyear m/t, or the bfg m/t because they are all great tires for on and off road performance.
