Default what tires

Ok, as y'all know I just sold a set of tires that I just bought yesterday haha. So I am saying screw used tires and getting retreads from treadwright(ya i know there is a thread but this is a question) Which ones should I get? I will be getting 8 wide wheels btw. I drive on snow daily in winter, gravel daily all year, mud fall and spring and sometimes summer, hwy all year and logging roads during hunting season plus some mild 4wheeling. Treadwright liked the guard dogs for me. sooo what do you all like? oh ya and kedge grip or not?

the first one is better by looking at it. But it's what you want.

The guy that started the Treadwright thread got the first ones and loved them, he also put a whole lot of miles on them if I remember right.
Someone was saying in a thread recently that the second set has a crap tread pattern and they were saying that because they had bought a new set of tires with that same tread pattern. I say crap meaning that they aren't good in rain or mud.

this is the best tread pattern for any terrian.. great on highway. great in mud.. great on snow and ice... plus they aren't very noisy!

but if you don't like those.. then get the guard dogs dawg!
