I have used the BF Goodrich tires and some other brands but the best I found for mud/snow was the Goodyear Workhorse tire. I used to stud the tires for the rear of my 2 trucks. Mileage wise I never got more than 23,000 miles out of a mud/snow tire on a truck. However, when I started studding them, this seemed to help out some and tire mileage jumped to around the 33,000 miles.
