There are a few good ones out there. I personally like the Cooper Discoverer STT. Toyo Open Country M/T is another good one. If those aren't aggressive enough for you check out the Nitto Mud Grapplers.

I just noticed you said A/T...lol! Ok well if those aren't what you're lookin for then you can try the Nitto Terra Grappler, Open Country A/T or the Discoverer ATR. You're not gonna get a much more aggressive AT tire though. Don't get me wrong when I say that. I know the stock tires aren't very good for mud and snow, but what A/T really is? If you want aggressive I'd suggest the Discoverer STT. Those are the one's I'll be ridin on here before too long.

May also want to check out the Cooper Zeon LTZ. They have been getting great reviews on here and just ordered a set but haven't had them put on yet

I agree. Heres some things to keep in mind -
Mickey thompsons tend to be pretty heavy but they do have the
sidebites that most of the other A/Ts dont have.
Nittos are a great looking/performing tire and theyre quiet.
Procomps are kind of expensive.

Nitto Terra Grappler's are good, but they are not going to last as long as a BFG AT.BFG makes 20" ATs as well.

Edit: Again, I find myself stupid. I originally wrote "Nitto Pro Comps".

Question... Street use only? Just looking for the look and a little size? There is nothing wrong with that if that is the case, but that can be a big deal with your selection.

Nitto's are made by Toyo and are a decnt tire. The Pro Comps', especially the Xtreme A/T's had a quality issue where tires were just falling apart. I'm sure they got tht issue fixed but I'm not sure

I had the Toyo open countrys on my 2007 and they were decent. I thought I could get something a little more aggressive without paying to much. I don't need them for serious off road but I do go on some heavy trails and sand. I had bf goodrich in the past but bell tire quoted me almost $400 a tire
