Hey Toyrod! Thanks for checking my thread!
I looked at Mickey Thompson Baja ATZ, but someone said they are noisy on the road. Mow I'm not sure what I'll do. What do you recommend?

I'm a Goodyear MTR guy. Any tire with a mud tread is going to be noisy, compared to an all terrain. I don't notice the tire noise much on my 40 because the soft top noise drowns it out. I use the Bridgestone Revos on the wifes 100 series. They just don't look as cool as a good MT. I'll be talking to a guy today that just put MTZs on his truck. I'll see what he says an let you know.
Nice work! 33's will look sharp on her! Thanks for the thread, I'll be using it when I do mine! Waiting for Kurt to ship mine!

I spent 3 hours Friday evening on it, and about 9 hours on Saturday. I'm kind of a slowpoke, I guess, because some folks forecasted 5 hours total.
It is a fun project. I recommend doing it yourself as opposed to paying a shop to do it. It'd be great if you could find an experienced Mudder nearby to help you get going and offer pointers.
ATZ noise
Just heard from Jerry with the 285/75r16 MTZs. He said they have a hum to them, but not too loud. ATZs should be quieter, but have no first hand experience. Get the tires that you like and don't worry about a little road noise. It helps scatter the squirrels anyway. (Not like splatter-scatter, but scare them out of the way type scatter)
