Description: Pro Comp Mud Terrain Tire
The Procomp Mud Terrain Tire is a moderately aggressive "Mud Terrain Tire with several ProComp specific design features that give it an edge over competing brand tires of similar design. On feature ProComp boasts about is the Twin Rib Center "Traction Zone", which consists of interlocking, open, aggressive twin high void lugs and the 90-degree checked siping pattern. The combined features, while not revolutionary, do help to increases and maximizes wet weather traction and bite on rocks and hard surfaces.
The Pro Comp Mud Terrain Tires has an alternating high void, three lug shoulder with a large, aggressive open grip spur, for increased traction and self-cleaning. Shoulder corner lugs extend up the sideway and incorporate a deep notched traction bar that helps traction and adds protection on rocks and in mud. The shoulder lugs are pre-drilled for studs for driving in the snow and ice, thus the hole seen on the out lugs.


Two layers of opposed-angle steel belting spans the tread area for maximum puncture resistance. The opposed angle steel allows the tread to flex under lower air pressure to maximize traction in rock, mud and sand.


Procomp's DualGuard™ Sidewall Compound Tread allows the tire to wear longer due to cooler running. The sidewall rubber is designed tougher for resisting scrapes and cuts.


Polyester Body Plies - Thick, 2-ply polyester construction combined with a blend of dual sidewall rubber allows maximum puncture resistance with total flexibility when using lower air pressure off-road without excessive heat build-up. Three ply construction provides less flex and more heat than 2- ply.


On road the tread has been designed to be considerably quieter than you would expect from a Mud Terrain tire making it an idea radial mud tire for a daily driver. We like the Procomp Mud Terrain tire and appriciate it's moderate aggressive look and performance to match. Sizes range from 30/9.50R15 up to a 35/12.50R17.


Manufacturers description of this tire:
1 - High Void Three Lug Shoulder Design
High Void Three Lug Shoulder Design
Pro Comp's Advantage - The high-void, three lug shoulder has a larger, more aggressive open grip spur, for increased traction and self-cleaning. The three staged lug is also pre-drilled for studs for driving on both snow and ice. This benefit is not available from most of the competition.

2 - Twin Rib Siping Center Traction Zone
Pro Comp’s Advantage - Interlocking, open, aggressive twin high-void lug delivers extra traction. Add the 90 degree check pattern siping and it blows the competition away. No competition. No comparison. Only the Pro Comp Mud Terrain has this feature.

3 - Dualguard Polyester Body Plies
Dualguard™ Polyester Body Plies consist of thick 2 ply polyester construction combined with a blend of dual side wall rubber allowing for maximum puncture resistance with total flexibility when using lower air pressure off road without excessive heat build up.

4 - Alternating Shoulder Lug Treatment
Pro Comp’s Advantage - Corner lugs with deep traction bars that help resist clog-up and maximizes the biting edge for increased traction in mud and rocks.

Pros: good on the road great on the trail all around great tire
Cons: none

I had 33x12.5R15's on my '89 Toyota Pickup. I got them used from a friend for $100 with only 2000 miles on them(he rolled his truck so I got a great deal)I ran them for 3 years 50000 miles with no flats and only got stuck once friend with 37" BFG MTs on his CJ5 had to winch his way to me to pull me out. No problems in snow, wet traction sucked when they were nearly bald but tire doesn't. I will definitely buy them again.

Pros: smoke good, have nice growl, look decent, good treadwear
Cons: treads clogg, puncture easily, poor traction all around

didnt buy these tires when i bought my truck they were on it 33x12.5R15's. good things bout these tires is they howled nice smoked good and had decent treadwear even after all the burnouts i did on them. off road these tires straight up blew. in thick goey mud they would clogg and ud need to be pullin high revs to clear them, mud there alright unless its thick n goey. deep snow there decent but packed snow and ice there just deadly. in rain with foot off the gas creepin around a corner theyd break loose and cause the a$$ end to come around. switched to goodyear wrangler MT/R's and would never go to another tire!!!

Pros: Price, looks, general performance, great treadwear.
Cons: Weak sidewall, bad in snow and ice.

Had these tires on my 1999 XJ 33x12.50R15. First week I had them I blew the sidewall on the trail on a rock. No waranty offered. Other than that one mishap I have had very good expirience with them. They wear very well (had them for two years before selling the XJ and they still have 50% left) and they perform very well on the street.
Bad performance in light snow but that is what 4x4 is for.
I would NOT purchase them again because of the sidewall issue...

Pros: Treadwear, noise, traction
Cons: Price when not on sale

I currently have a set of 35x12.50-R17 Pro Comp Mud Terrains installed on my 2006 F150. I have been pleased with this tire in most aspects, and am considering buying another set to replace these, though at the same time I want to experiement with other brands.


Here is my breakdown:
Dry Pavement - 9/10
On the highway they are pretty quiet for a MT, however, they can be a bit rough riding over certain types of bumps and have a tendancy to follow grooves slightly. On the surface streets (non-freeway/Interstate) they are a good tire with minimal tread vibration below 5mph (it goes away at speeds over that). They balance easily, but do need to be rotated and re-balanced about once every 10k miles for best performance.


Wet Pavement - 7/10
Anybody that understands fluid dynamics can tell you that the large, widely spaced tread-blocks are not condusive to water evacuation at high speeds. Ever seen an F1 rain tire? For moving water out of the way at speed, you need a straight line that flows in the direction the water will flow as the tire rotates (hence the V shaped tread). With that in mind, this tire performs more than acceptably and safely on wet pavement and even light snow or ice. The reviewers claiming that they are "deadly" on ice are more than likely the "deadly" aspect of the equation. As mentioned, the tires are stud-able for winter duties and if so equiped would clean house against most other tires available. I have not had any scray moments in the rain, snow or even on ice with my tires, although with the tread now worn to the wear-indicator bars, I am leery to ask much of them in inclimate weather. Common sense tells me to slow down when driving in bad weather, and when you apply that to these tires you will be A-Okay.


Off-Road, mixed trail use - 10/10
Here in northern California, we have a wide variety of terrain and it can usually all be found on the same trail. It is in these changing conditions, over trails containing: rocks, gravel, sand, clay-like soil, mud and even some roots and loose ground cover that the Pro Comp Mud Terrains are at their brightest! While they are not a standout in any one area, they are not poor in any areas either. To me, that is what makes them one of the best all-pupose tires you can get.


Off-Road, deep mud 6/10
While they are considered a mud terrain, they are certainly not as aggressive as some others on the market. If you are wanting a tire that can get you through the nastiest bog out there, look for a set of Super Swamper Boggers... for occasionaly mud pits and mud that isn't super gumbo in nature, these tires are capable enough to meet most people's needs.


Off-Road, sand - 9/10
I was damn impressed by these tires in the sand! My 6,000 pound F150 has a tendancy to sink deeply in to the sand at Pismo beach (or any dand dune for that matter), but when you air these tires down to 18psi or so they are a lot better at floating the truck. Don't be too worried if you sink down a little, as the tread on these things will rip you through sand just fine provided you have the power to turn them! I've been burried to the bottom of my rim, and with a quick stab of the throttle was able to pull myself back to the top and continue on my way... a moment later I realized that I had forgotten to shift the transfer case into 4wd (oops!), but they got me up an rolling depsite only powering the rear axle. Not bad if you ask me. As a side note: I have also pulled our dirtbike trailer and a 6,500 pound travel trailer (not at the same time) into some deep sand and driven out with no issue.


Off-Road, deep snow - 7/10
When the snow closes the roads, and subsequently the ski resorts and other areas you want to attend you have two choices: call it quits and waste you 1 week off of work, or, grab some buddies with 4x4s and pull snowboarders behind your truck! Again, air them down a little bit for floatation and they do a good job.


All in all, this is a great tire for a daily driver that also sees trail use. I am absolutely not against buying another set, but as I mentioned want to see what else is out there. I have 38k miles on this set and just recently hit the wear indicator bars. Given the size, weight and power (405hp and 472lb/ft to the tires via a Whipple super charger)of my truck, and the fact that it is often loaded down with alfalfa, tools and other weight I say the treadwear is quite good. Good all around tire for a full size truck. Worlds better than my old BFG MTs.

Pros: they look good
Cons: they suck on a diesel truck-can't take the smallest corner more than 45 mph or my truck would roll.

I have an 09 Silverado 2500hd crew w/ a Duramax. Just put 265/75/16 mud terrains on last weekend and can't wait to get them off. They are absolutely dangerous on a diesel truck. Maybe they are fine on gas trucks with a lighter front end. But cornering sucks and I wouldn't want to have to make a sudden swerve. They are a roll-over waiting to happen. Had 285/75/16 BFG Mud Terrains on my 03 Duramax and they were awesome.

Pros: Look like BFG
Cons: Absolutely junk

Worst tires known for the price. Sidewalls cut like warm butter. Pro comp doesnt stand behind their tires.If you buy a pair, buy two pair you might get a little farther.

Pros: Looks, Ride, Price, Wet Traction with siping
Cons: cuts in tread, Noise

Bought a set of 5 and rotated them religiously on my Jeep TJ. Good all around tire for trail use and off-roading - most of my driving was highway, and they were pretty good for that use. Took Jeep to Moab for pretty intense wheeling, and came home with a lot of cuts and chunks out of tread. The soft compound really helps with traction on rocks, especially on hot rocks, but looses some points on strength and durabilty. We ran 80 to 100 mph coming home and they held up fine for a 15 hr. drive. I would buy another set if they were on sale. Very comparable to BFG 1st Gen Mud Terrain. Siping was a plus while it was there, but was gone after about 15000 miles. When I rock-crawled - went down to 12 psi, and never lost a sidewall. Went to Goodyear MTR for greater sidewall stability.

Pros: Great Mud Tires, Reasonably Priced, Little Road Noise
Cons: NONE

I put some 285/75R/16 on my 86 F-250 and I am more than happy with them, i haven't got to play in the mud alot with them, but when i did they had no problem, and they have probably the littlest road noise of any mud terrain tire i have ever had. All around great Tire!

Pros: tread wear seems good
Cons: treads clog up with anything and everything, horrible traction all around,

good for a mall crawler or pavement pounder but thats it


these tires bog up in mud and become completely useless...they bring the suck in snow and they are horrible on icy or wet roads


i went up to a set of ground hawgs when the pro-crap M/Ts still had 50% tread cause i couldnt stand them any more...needless to say the ground hawgs are 100 times better in every terrain i have used them both in...i will never buy pro-crap tires again, WAY overpriced for the low quality

Pros: looks aggresive
Cons: fast wear. horrible in packed snow and ice

i seen this tire and thought aggresive. It worked well in the mud but that was it. Tire is only got me about 15,000 miles. Always been horrible on ice and packed snow. Tires have gotten very loud as well.

Pros: great all around mud tire
Cons: noisy but what mud tire isnt

These tires have been great. I have had them for 4 years and have 70k on them with no flats and towing a trailer 90%of the time I would say money well spent. I got the buy three get one free deal so for $ 550 not bad. The biggest thing with mud tires is to rotate and check tire pressure often. I off-road often and they always did great most of the time I road around in two wheel drive and only had to put it in four wheel when I got to deep stuff.

Pros: Great on the street, trail. mud, and sand
Cons: Not too good in the snow, but its a mud tire, not a snow tire.

This is my first mud tire. Bought a Jeep Wrangler back in Sep. 07. They were on it when I bought it, and they looked to be brand new tires. They work great in mud, loose dirt, hard dirt, and on the street. They also do very well on the wet pavement. The sipes on the center treads have worn down since I bought the Jeep, and notice a difference in driving in the snow. Went down a slight hill in 2-wd, and the Jeep didn't want to steer on just a trace of snow, but other than that, I'll give up 2 thumbs up for them. It was pretty slick that night too, whatever you were driving.
