mickey thompson or dick cepek?

anyone have any input on the A/T's offered by mickey thompson or dick cepek. They offer some sizes that nitto and BFG don't, and that is why I was considering them. Mainly the 305/60R18E.

I do know they are kinda Pricey. No actual experience with either. I'm in the market for some new skins as well.

Just purchased a set of Mickey Thompsons. I really like them. Haven't put many miles on them yet. They do roar a little on pavement. Had to hack front fenders so that the tires wouldn't rub. Key is cranked atw.

only 28K out of them, you guys crack me up
never in my life have I gotten 28 out of anything. I'm not really a burnout guy but more of a slide around the corner guy, all the locals flip me off

though about getting the mickey ATZs myself

that was 28 out of them under normal driving conditions. no burnouts or slides, just highway and offroad use. the ATZs look pretty nice though, heard they are better than the MTXs

the MTZ or the ATZ has proven to us as a great tire,we handle lots of them and so far i dont have any complaints on them.

I really like my ATZ's they drive really good for a 35x13.50. I have about 7,500 miles on them now and they're still like new. I'm like HumboltDmax I don't burn out but i do like to slide the corners. hahaha
