Default Best East Coast Tire?

What is the best east coast tire? We have dirt, rock, and mud. Would Sedona, boss claws, or rovers be best?

My vote for all around use would be Sedonas but Boss Claws definitely have their place as well. Hard to pick just one tire, not every tire works on every type of rock under all conditions.

Since his examples are generally used as comp tires I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess he's comp crawlin.

Rovers have worked well for me.

I don't do real comps, but do "makeshift" comps with my buddies.

You should see a mix of the Sedonas and Boss Claws with a few Rovers mixed in tomorrow at the comp...just watch and make your own decision. I have the Sedonas and Boss Claws on wheels, and a set of Rovers unmounted. I like the Boss Claws at most locations, but if there is much chance of mud or much moisture I'll opt for the Sedonas, which is what I'll be running tomorrow at least until the rocks heat up after noon.

Basically what everyone on here is going to say is that there isn't a "best" specific tire, but there is probably a "best" for your rig and driving style. All of them have weaknesses and strengths.
