I currently have BFGoodrich All Terrain T/A's on my '96 Blazer.  They are good tires but I am looking for something that gets better traction in the mud.  Does anyone have any ideas of tires i could get?

Any number of Mud Terrian tires. I have heard decent to great things about the BF Mud Terrians and the Toyo Open Country MT's. Personally I would get the Toyo's since they look amazing.

Yeah I forgot about that, a lot of people get their BFG MT's siped, but the Toyo's already come siped and seem like they would do real well.

I am running firestone destination m/t's on my blazer and I like them a lot. They are an aggressive looking tire.  They get great traction in mud.  I have around 8,000-10,000 miles on them so far and they almost look brand new.  They are also wearing very evenly.

The Goodyear MTRs wear HORRIBLY. I had two sets of them on my jeep. They worked amazing offroad, but were very poor on road. They wore very poorly on both sets. I thought that the first set was just a fluke, so I got another set since it was mainly an offroad truck, and got the same problems. I would go with the BFGs or the destination MT.

I have been shopping around and these are the cheapest I can find. They are Difinity Dakota M/T from pep boys. $440.00 for four 31x10.50 and they have very agressive tread.

Never heard of them before, but they are aggresive and they come with a 40,000 mil warrenty so why not.
