Default Noob question about thread depth

Do different brands of mud tires come with different thread depths when they are new, or is there a standard size/depth? I'm just wondering if I go from a set of Toyo MT's to a set of Cooper STT's, or even a different mud tire, will they all have the same amount of tread or different? Just wondering if I have to factor this in as well when I go to buy new tires and want a good long lasting tire...Thanks!

If you go to the manufacturer's websites, they should list the tread depths and other info. Some retailers list all that info also. The two may also be different overall heights even if they're listed the same size.

Most I've seen are between 17/32 and 21/32. Not enough to be a deal breaker.
