HURF is off the scale
Default

Maybe 20 yrs ago,

Now a days with all the Off Road tires out there,,

For what the "Average Weekend Wheeler" sees,,

The difference between say a $89 Mud King (No R&D),,,and a $150 BFG MT (Millions on R&D) is negligable

But if that is inportant to you,,,The smaller "specialized tire makers" Like Super Swampers,,Mickey Thompson,,Dick Cepek are very focused/and well respective in their Race Proven Technology.

And are usually cheaper than the Big Names,,BFG,,Goodyear,Brigestone

I have seen very few ripped sidewallls or stuck trucks,, where 1-2 more ply's,, or a more expensive model,, would have made a diff

Fujimama low profiles and Fart cans belong on "Tuners"
