For the occasional weekend wheeler and mostly street I've heard nothing but good from Truxus MTs, a lot of Jeepers run them on DD that are over on the MWJT boards...they have good on-road charecteristics when compared to most MTs and also have siping in the treads for increased handling in snow and rainy conditions. They perform well on the rocks, mud, dirt, and have been known as a solid all around tire, and the price is below that of the rather expensive BFGs and under other MTs...the only downside, if you want to call it that, is that the tread depth starts off a little smaller than most MTs, forget the exact measurements, but for the affordable price you should be able to get about 30,000 or so depending on driving habits, conditions, etc.In which most wheelers/drivers look elsewhere for a tire or want to upgrade, or try something different.
Personally, I have Goodyear Wrangler MT/Rs and love the aggressive look, wet road handling in about par with other MTs, they are great on the trail but have trouble clearing out when very muddy, awesome on rocks...but in the midwest you will mostly be dealing with trails, some mud, etc...all of which the Truxus is suitable for.
There's my .02 cents, hope it helped some.
