I appreciate your input. Did you look at any other tire - there don't seem to be many to choose from this size. Did you consider the Firestone All Terrain Destination LT? (same load range, slightly less cost.) Good mud clean out is very important where I live, and that may be one advantage to the Destinations (according to what I've read). As soon as I pull out of the mud, I'm on a steep grade heading downhill - I really need good traction.
