That’s the problem, you buy your mulch, I mulch my own.

I am on my 3rd set of duratracs.

They are absolutely superior in every way. I have gone deep in mud with them on lots of occasions. They're insanely good for an A/T. They also drive like a real damn tire and don't wear out on the road like m/t's.

Believe me. They are at the tip top of performance game.

I've had two sets of the bfg at's. Those are also great, but a bit less useful in mud.

I make my own compost but I’m too wary of a wood chipper.

Maybe for your weekend warrior that’s on mostly gravel when they’re “off-road”.

There’s a reason 90% or more of people overlanding or doing heavy off-roading use BFG K02.

Be prepared to pay some $ for either tire. The prices are crazy these days.

I know. I just bought some for my Jeep. Cost me almost 2k

Two years ago I bought some for my 100 series and they cost me $1200.

I’m not upset

I’m just pointing out that no one that does heavy mileage over diverse off-road terrain is running duratrac.

Same factory as Falken but about 2/3 the price.

What are you running on your 100? My 200 is eating up Ridge Grapplers. I am looking hard at Falkens.

Cooper or master craft at3. Both are made by the same company and you will get a lot of mileage out of them.

I like the Firestone Transforce AT. They are aggressive but they are tough. I drive in so much gravel that I get a lot of splits.

BFG KO2 35x12.5

I’ve got under 15,000 miles on them. I did the entirety of the Smoky Mountain 1000 a few months ago and ran them at 20 psi most of the way other than when I had to hop back on the road to get to the next trail. They’re still like new.

Falken and Patagonia seem to be the go to “budget” brands. Heard and seen a lot of good things.
