    I figured fitting 32.7x11.2 tires on a 2" lift was kinda extreme and for the MT's they were great but loud which I'm tired of right now LOL

    Ya when I first got them I was ok with it but that wore out. They gripped like mad off road that's for sure but as much as I avoid mud the MT's were not worth it. Then took into account the highway miles between my house and the trails and the beach the rough ride and noise was out weighing the benefits for me. I run mostly rocks and sand so I think the AT's will be a good fit. I would never discourage anyone from running the maxis big horns that's for sure those things were off road beasts that bit hard and took serious abuse.

    Thats why I like my MT/R's w/Kevlar. They really aren't that loud (well I dont think they are) and they are awsome in every terrain. Not only that but they are amazing in the snow too!

    same reasons I went with the duratrac.... AT tread in the middle section and MT lugs on the outside.

    If they didnt have the all terrain section in the middle of the MT/R's they would be crazy loud!
