So, I'll be installing my OME med. kit, and TC UCA arms this weekend. So I have till Friday to decide what tires to order so they can be here for the following weekend. These are my choice's, in no specific order:
First of all, in my eyes these are all great looking tire's with the claws being my fav. with the destinations next inline. Xterrain's look really mean, and I heard alot of good things about the MT MTZ's. My FJ see's highway 80% of the time and is my daily driver, with that in mind how do these tires handle the elements? Anyone who has any seat time w/ the xterrains, is there alot of wind noise?
I would like an aggressive tire, that looks awsome, and doesn't produce alot of noise running down the highway at 65 mph. I know I'll be dealing with some, but I don't want it to be excessive. I plan on mounting the tires on the fact. wheels. Why, I really like the way aggressive tires look on the OEM wheels. So, what do you think will suit me best?

Just went wheeling last weekend with brand new Baja MTZs. I love the tire. It has very good grip on the rocks. On the highway, I didn't feel that the handling got worse. You will get road noise, but its acceptable. It also looks really sweet. THe only thing I don't like about them is that it chips easily on the sidewall compared to Toyo's and Pro Comps.
Anyways, here are pictures of my tires on stock size. Also I lost about 4-5 MPG as soon as I installed the tires.
