Default toyo a/t or toyo m/t ?

Is there much of a difference on the road from the toyo a/t to m/t?

MTs are very heavy, but surprisingly they balance well. They are stiff and as the wheel diameter goes up, the flexibility offroad when aired down will decrease. If you just occasionally wheel, I'd pick an AT one, however the MTs get a good onroad mileage too.

I had 38" MT's on my CJ and they made suprisingly low noise (for a Mud Tire) and rode extremely well.

I have the 33" Toyo ATs and really like them. Not much road noise and they balanced well. They run very smooth for a fairly large tire and were priced right at $150++ each

we run Toyo M/T's on our TJ and XJ. They work great off-road!! With several rubicon, moab, and local so cal runs, they have always worked well.

As for street performance, we don't run the rigs on road to much, however I do have A/T's on my 2500HD and they work great. Balance easy and are smmoth. Had the M/T's on before and same thing. Moved to the A/T becasue I didn't need the agressive tread and the A/T had enough to get me through any towing situation.
