I'm still in the process of looking for tires for my 99 zr2 blazer. After a few of you gave varying posts on the bfg mud terrains, i expanded my search a bit. I found a really interesting tire. Heres the link: http://desertrat.com/parnelli%20jones/parnellijones.htm

I also did some more research on them and read some articles at

I really like the design of the tire, from the appearance of the tire it looks like a all-terrain with a mud terrain built in. Whats everyone think? Yea or Nea? They look good to me :gives:

Even though the guys in the article claim that it is an awesome tread pattern. I just don't see how it could be very good. It just doesn't look like it could get much traction, and even though they say that it is a good self cleaner, I can't see it being that either:

I run BFG longtrail T/As. They are very mild off road tires that have excellent treadwear on road. They're good for light off roading, but not for hardcore:
