I've seen and heard nothing but good on the MT Baja MTZ's, they grip like a mofo, but if you're doing DD, the TrXus seem to drive and wear better on the highway. Just depends on what you're willing to give up...capability on the trails, or endurance on the roads.

Both, the Trxus and BFG wear much better as a DD.

I had a set of trXuss also and they got great tire wear and I had no tracktions probles with them either. Well there was one time in Alaska when I decided that I could make it over the 5 foot snow bank. But that was not the tires fault that the snow bank collapsed leaving me to crawl out my window to get hauled out by a Hemmet(8wd truck)
