These tires are for people who don't need a 4WD. Doctors who drive mostly on the road. I hate them.

Cost, all-around traction, enhanced sidewall, added sipes, low road noise.

Cons:

Sidewalls seem thin, had one replaced due after a month or so.

I had just about run my course with a set of 31" Toyo AT's on my 3.0 Ford Ranger 4x4, and was needing something much more aggressive, self-cleaning, had a higher void ratio in the tread, while also needing to be a safe and reliable performer on the highway for school and travel, especially in the rain, AND be affordable. I looked high and low, all over town, at all brands and types, and for the money/piece of mind, the 31x10.50R15 Maxxis Buckshot XMT Mudders fit the bill nicely. I had never considered or knew of Maxxis tires being used aside from motocross applications so the brand was new to me. Noting highway friendliness as a necessary factor, Interco tires were quickly exhausted (having experience with TSL radials). My top 3 choices came down to 1)Toyo MT's, 2) Cooper STT's, and 3) Maxxis Buckshot XMT's. I loved both the Toyo's and Coopers for their segmented molds, generous sipping, and appealing tread arrangements, but both pushed or exceeded the $200 mark a piece. The Maxxis tire was certainly the "under dog" of the choices I had; and for good reason. I had only seen Buckshots on a handful of rigs in the past, and was unaware of their reputation. Secondly, they are constructed via clamshell molding, making them a cheaper tire to produce-translating to greater chances for construction fatigue. But when a 31" XMT was rolled out onto the showroom floor at the end of the long day of looking and deciding, I was SOLD. At $163 a piece, with deep sipes, and a somewhat aggressive sidewall-unlike the buttery smooth sidewall present on the original Mudder- there wasn't much discouragement. I purchased 5 of them that day, and they've performed FLAWLESSLY on both the highway (wet and dry) and on all off-road conditions. Wether it be slimy, soupy, thick or clay-rich mud, they've pulled through. On dirt, rocks, tree roots, telephone polls and ruts, you can trust them. All around a GREAT BUY. *One tire was however replaced free of charge after about a month, due to wobbly shaking. The cause of this was unknown, and no visible signs of tread/belt separation were detected.*

I bought these tires for my 2009 Z71. I have 275 65R18's. i wanted a 10 ply tire but am satisfied with the 8. So far I have about 9K on them and tehy are wearing alittle faster than i was wanting them to. I have a set of Summit Mud dawgs on a 94 suburban that I have about 52K on and I am pretty sure I wont get that out of these but if i get 35K, I will be happy. Most of my driving is on paved roads, i just wanted something to get me thru the field when needed.
Overall they are a good tire. I have driven them thru 3 snow storms and they have done well with no traction problems yet. I have pulled 3 people out of the ditch in the snow, one was a HHR that was in park cause we couldn't find anywhere to hook to so we wrapped the strap thru the wheel. I have been in any really deep mud but have had the sidewalls covered and tehy did well. Takes alittle more wheel spin to clear than the Mud Dawgs but the will clean out. There could be more sipping but it is what it is. If these tires were junk, they wouldnt have been around for as long as they have. I might put a set back on, tread life and the price next time will be what will determine that.

I must say I love my buckshots. even after 3 years of wheeling every weekend they perform with most new tires. A buddy of mine spent 900 on some kuhmo kl71's to find out my buckshots at only 650 performed better. These tires are also great on road and don't make a lot of sound. I have yet to do anything in the snow but this upcoming winter I'm going to need to find some. Wet roads the tires do decent in. I notice they throw a lot of water on passing drivers but whats that matter to me? hahahaha
