The Terras are plenty aggressive. I get lots of compliments on them. They are the best street tire (dry,rain,snow,ice) I have ever used. They are great offroad on everything except mud....not bad in mud but my wifes Procomp MT's are much better.

My Nitto Mud Grapplers are amazing in all conditions and even better in heavy mud, bud sound like a B-52 bomber

I haven't had my TGs in much mud yet, but they did great on open rock and in sand. As far as the ride goes, they don't feel any different to me than the stock 29" tires that came on my Jeep. I picked them up at the start of this past winter and they have done great in the snow as well.
I can't say much about wear because I've only had them for about three thousand miles, but I do like the look of them. Certainly not as aggressive as an MT, but better than a lot of the ATs out there.
I'm a fan of the tire, but will probably switch to an MT once these are gone.

Default Terra Grapplers

I have had them on two other trucks, wife has not picked out wheels for the jeep so, no TGs on it yet. They are much better on road than the BFG ATs. Never used 4wd this past winter in my Ram, they are great in the rain, good in sand, fine on rocks, and for an AT tire I think they do good in the mud. Oh, and I had 40K miles on the last set before I sold the truck, still had good tread left. I also picked up a 6" long body bolt in the treads of one tire, went right under the lugs about an inch in from the sidewall. Drove for about 10 miles to get home, pulled it out, tire never leaked air, never blew out, it continued to perform like the others. Highly recommend.

I had them put on last week and picked the car up yesterday. I drove home from NJ to RI and they felt great. A little louder than the stocks I was coming from, but so far so good.
