I am running the 33" general Grabber Mudders and I like them. No mud out here to try them in yet so not sure how good they are in the mud.
I also have a set of Yokohama Mudders 31" and they are noisey and you can feel vibration at low speeds on the road. The grabbers do not do this. The Grabbers have a lot more meat on them as well but do not have the outside lugs angled back for easier cleaning from tire rotation.

I have the Continental MTs which are the same thing and so far I love em. They don't make a lot of noise on the expressway and are pretty good in the mud (I haven't been able to do any real offroading in them, just mud on the jobsite). I do recommend them to anyone. Desert Rat has a great deal on those with the AE 589. That is where I got mine.

The Grabbers wear pretty good. You can hear the meat as it hits the pavement and get some vibration through the steering wheel.
Mileage seems to be pretty consitant for me when I change from the MT to the BFG At's. The chart shows about 1 mpg diff.
If you want to read fmy data on gas mileage here are how this works.
Date of Fillup, Miles, the 0 mean nothing, Gallons of gas, MPG, Cost, Cost per mile.
MT's are General Grabbers and the AT's are BFG's.
I drive the same week to week except for the added runs to Pismo and Hollister which are noted.
Pretty anal HUH! To make thing worse I am now keeping track of tread wear as well.
