I have the MTZ, and to be quite honest, the road wear is not that good and the claws are even softer from what I hear.

I have had great luck with the MTZ's. I am now rolling the ATZ's, I like those even better.

A friend of mine has the claws and says he wishes he would have gone for something a little more street friendly.As stated above the atzs are great.thats what im running.They are alot quieter than most all terrains and im getting .5 mpgs more average than with my old bfgs.just an idea.

I have some 35x12.50 17 MTzs. I like them so far. They are noisy but baja claws are even noisier. Haven't had enough miles on them to really tell how long they will last.

Next time I get tires I will probably get the ATZs instead. If your going to spend the majority of your time on the road or in sand the ATZs are a better choice.
