If you are looking for tread life and low noise, go with the ProComp extreme AT's. They have like a 40,000 warranty and alot of people on here are running them and love them alot. Just my .02 because I to am in search of my tire.

I'd take look at the BFG A/T.

Of your choices, i'd think the ATZ's would be your best bet.

Mud tires have come a long way since "the old days." Tread life runs about 20-25k on most "cheap" M/T's and 35k on the better ones. Noise is almost a non-issue with newer M/T's with the exception of Nitto Mud Grapplers and non radial M/T's.

With that said, I think you'd be more than with the BFG KM2.

I'm biased to and love my Pro Comp Xtreme AT's. Have had them on for over 13k miles now and they show little to no wear at all. Highly recommend these tires!

I have always thought the mtz looked bad ace but I have the xtreme at and they are everything I hoped for and more. They ride well and have performed idealy everywhere I've taken them. Buy with confidence. Pics in my gallery

I rotate mine every 5k miles with the oil change and I've had no issues with mine. Like I said earlier, they show little to no wear at all.

Id say Mickey Thompson MTZ's. My friend has them on his Yotabug and his truck is unstoppable. They throw the mud off really good.
