BF Goodrich Mud Terrain T/A KM: PATTERN??

Which tread pattern are the BF Goodrich Mud Terrain T/A KM?

I have been looking at them and found two different tread patters with the same name.

http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....um=575QR7MTAKM

or

http://www.discounttiredirect.com/di...5&rd=17&cs=255

FYI I am buying these tires (a weird size) to travel across the country on a couple different trips but want the reliabilty of m/t and this size makes is economical and have m/t traction

Thanks guys,
Ryan

Those both look exactly the same to me.

The width of the tire makes a difference also.

Maybe I am losing it. One looks more like hooks while the other looks 'blocky'

I am finding tire size doesn't matter. Same tread for both sizes. But I am noticing that production year may be reason.
