Default Dick Cepek Tires, tough decision...

It is little bit early because I'm planning to buy new tires at spring, but, anyway, what would you recommend to choose Fun Country II or Mud Country? I run 265/70R17 and probably will stick to this size so I've found that Mud Country is only $10 more expensive then FC II so money is not an issue. MC looks better but my driving is 95% on-road/highway. Please vote!

I have no experience with the Mud Country, but my Fun Country tires have been excellent. It's a true hybrid between an A/T & an M/T tire.
I drive 360 miles each way, when I goto my land in Georgia, so I needed a tire with good road manners, which would not wear down to nubs in no-time on pavement, yet would let me hunt, fish and camp with the guys when I got up there.

Perfect tire for a daily driver that still likes to play hard on the weekends...

We had the fc II on a cherokee and it went through some nasty stuff and looked badass. I recommend them.

I think the FC II also...theres no point in buying a mud terrain unless you are a real offroader, need it for a job, or want it for the looks department. I got stuck with M/Ts but really wanted some fairly aggressive A/Ts.

I only found one place around here that sells that line and they were really high. I guess Im still not on the online tire train

Mickey Thompson/Dick Cepek tires are high, but I've gotten 68k out of a set of Mickey's and would've gotten more but I traded the truck in.
Looking at my Cepeks at 31k, I'll get even more because I don't think my tread is down much more than 10%.
Might cost you more initially, but cost you less in the long run...
