Hmm.......SS Boggers are what most people seem to use in the mud. I have
some buds with Boggers on their Jeeps. I don't know what you mean be "hold
mud". If you mean that they "clean out" slow, that's not what I have seen.
They clean out fast, and spit mud everywhere(cool!). I would say to go
with the Boggers. Just my $.02.
I've heard Ft. Hood is a blast, never been myself though.
btw: One of my friends runs 33x14.5s on a 15x8 rim. It's possible, not
recommended, though. I think Boggers come in a 31x12.5 too. I don't know
for sure.
