Are the comparable to stock on the highway?

FWIW- If you drive in snow/ ice (on the road) MT tires bring teh suck! AT tires are way better for that. A tire that's in bewtween an MT and an AT, IMO, would be to go with the procomp extreme AT. They have deeper lugs and are dirrectional. We have them on our H3 and they kick butt in the snow/ ice, they're good in the mud (not as good as a MT tire, but close) but better than my AT's have been in the past. They don't seem to clog up with mud as much as the BFG AT's did. I'm not sure if that's due to wider spacing between lugs or the dirrectional pattern or both. I have a set of these on the way for the H2 in a 37 13.50 17. most of my driving is on the road. For the off roading I do (a few times a year), I'll throw my MT's back on if they are week long trips or something. Also if you have air susp. go with a 12.50 wide tire so you don't air down and mess up that arm back there.

keep in mind that if you don't stay on top of front end alignment, balance, and rotation, the MT tires will show more wear quicker than an AT and will also ride with vibration. I have this with my MT's for the last 3,000 miles. the damn steering wheel and shifter shake pretty bad. They are getting better though.
