I've been looking at tire reviews and each tire you look at you get one good review & and another bad review in the same conditions which is very confusing.
Right now I'm considering the BFG TA KO tire since I've had experience with it before. I'm looking for a All-Terrain tire because I plan to play in the dry summer, rock craw, sand, snow, & some mud. Judging by the reviews if I go with a mud tire it will be good in the mud but bad on everthing else...
Any feedback?

Just cuz a tire is a "mud terrain" or "mud tire" doesn't mean that's all it is good for buddy. A good all Around tire is a toyo mt and a nitto trail grappler. . Both are named under the mud tire category , but are more a Swiss army tire. Good for everything

Nitto doesn't offer the trail grappler in 15" rim size.

Exactly...which is too bad.

Cooper discoverer STT's come in that size as well as the toyo mt. I would look at those. Both are great tires but I believe the coopers have a little bit softer compound.

BFG's have paper thin sidewalls. They are defiantly stronger but not as strong as a nitto.

I've ran Bfg, probably put that tire thru the most abuse of anyone who's run them. Never failed me Aired down to 11-12 psi. The only thing I hated was chunking due to serious rock crawling. That's all that I didn't like. I opted for the MTR the old style. Favorite all round. The Kevlar model is the best tire on the tj market right now. I would consider them
Ps. Don't worry about your d30. 35s is the max on the front. It's the rear that should concern you.

Awesome pictures!....I knew the BFG sidewalls were a little thin...and its old technology. They do work great but there's been a lot of great new tires come out in the past 10 years.
I'm considerig the SST's because they clean the mud out better than the BFG's even tho I may go in the mud a couple of times a year. It's hard to beat the price of the BFG's tho.
I'm got lucky with this jeep, the previous owner had upgraded to a dana 44 rear axle so I should be ok. I'm considering on getting some chrome moly shalfs since both axles have ABR lockers in them.
