I am a fan of the BFG Mud terrains. Those will go on my Jeep once I wear out the BFG All Terrains. If you care to spend a little more. The TOYO muds are getting good reviews.
In my opinion the BFG Mud ta's are hard to beat. Between myself and a few friends we have owned every brand and type of mud tire, and I keep coming back to Bfg. Toyos are good, Super Swampers are ok. It just depends on how much offroad to highway driving you will be doing.
CHains are great but need more then that.

whips and chains?????? :)
I have the the cooper wildcat ext on my tacoma right now, and those things are gripping machines. I have about 44,000 on them now and will go at least till the end of next summer. If you can stand the noise i would highly recomend
I have been hearing enough about Cooper tires lately to make me think I should take a closer look.
I went with the coppers. So far they have been great.

Let us know if you still like them in the snow, mud etc...
Hopefully those work out for you, but I would not use a Cooper if it were the only tire available. Cooper is alleged to be as bad of tires (responsible for as many deaths) as the Firestones from 10 years ago. The 8 deaths of the USU students were found to be caused by the Cooper Tires: http://hjnews.townnews.com/articles/2007/03/20/news/news02.txt Do a search on Google of "Cooper tires suit," it is incredible to see the number of deaths direcly linked to the lack of using the nylon band to avoid tread separation. I would guess that many manufacturers have several cases but this article is startling: http://www.tiredefects.com/defective-cooper-tires-unsafe-production.cfm

Obviously these cases are fairly rare, but the practices of the company seem apparent that quality is an afterthought.
