The 7902 would likely not make it through muck/mire very well (wouldn't sling off mud as easily due to the closer lugs) but it would get me up through most stuff.

If I lived where it was muddier or wetter than drought-stricken SoCal, then the ZS200GY-2 tire looks like the ticket.
I appreciate your input. I think it would be nice if CST imported all three tires in the poll, as well as the stock, CST C6017 tire.
