My M37 had Gateway Buckshot Wide Mudders on it
when I bought it, so I've never used non-directionals
and can't give a comparison. However, I am very
happy with the performance of the buckshots, on
and off road. The only downsides for on road use
are the very high roll resistance and noise. Off
road they have performed well in all conditions
with compacted wet snow being the worst performace
for the tire, though they still did well.

The buckshots I have are bias ply. My understanding
is that bias ply is better for off road use since
the tire molds around obstacles much better then
radials, giving the tire a better foot print on
the obstacle.

The cost of my tires are $190 each and they mount
on the stock split rim.

Hope this helps.
