I've heard the Radial F-C II's are a pretty solid tire in almost all terrain.

Yes Dick Cepek's are a Mickey Thompson tire. They have been part of Mickey Thompson from what I know a the last few years as I had a set of Dick Cepek FC-II's about 5 years ago and they were Mickey Thompson branded on the side walls.
