I don't have 4x4 performance and find myself stuck while my friends are plugging thru the mud. I want to make the most of my two wheel drive system and would like to know which tire you would recommend for general all around performance but a tire that will do well in the mud. I currently have a nobby 24 11 10.

 

You didn't mention what your ride is, but Bear Claws work pretty well for moderate mud as well as other terrain. By the way the correct term for a 2 wheel drive is 4x2. Four wheels with two driving.

 

I have Kenda Bearclaws on my Honda 300 4x2 and I never get stuck only hung up. These aren't any pansy puddles either. This is in a 3 foot creek. I went muddin with some guys on a Sportsman 500 and an Arctic Cat 400 with stock tires and I beat them through everything. Bearclaws are excellent in mud.

Go with the mud runners or mud bugs both have excellent traction in the mud and good behavior on hardpack. With my tires I pretty much go any where my buddies do on their 4x4's...You may also want to look at the Tri-claws (but I think you'll need new wheels with those)
