The Maxxis MT-762 Bighorn tires receive generally positive reviews for their off-road performance and versatility in various terrains.
The Maxxis MT-762 Bighorn tires are well-regarded for their off-road capabilities and versatility across various terrains. They perform particularly well in mud, loose snow, and rugged conditions.

These tires are best suited for drivers who prioritize off-road performance and can tolerate some compromises in on-road comfort and longevity.
Positive highlights
Excellent traction in mud, snow, and off-road conditions. Good performance on rural highways and dirt roads. Durable and long-lasting, with some users reporting up to 60,000 miles. Relatively quiet for an aggressive mud-terrain tire. Puncture-resistant. Great value for the price.

Used these on my 4th gen 4runner this summer for some off-road adventures. Worked great in
a variety of terrains Haven't had a chance to see how they perform in rain or snow.
No surprise that they're louder on pavement than the Continental LX20 all season tires I run. And gas mileage is slightly reduced but on both counts- noise and fuel economy- it's to be expected. If anything I'm a bit surprised I didn't take a bigger hit in those two areas.
Jury is out on how many miles I'll get on them. I probably have 5 or 6000 mile's on them and treadwear looks minimal. Besides I have them mounted on separate rims and take them on and off as needed so I'm not as concerned about that as someone who would be using them all the time.
YMMV as they say :)

I love these tires. My truck runs great with them. They did well on snow, ice, water, rocky mud and dirt. Some may say they are loud but I had no issue with the noise.

Put 34000 miles on them in 3 years, they saw allot of off-road. They do okay in powder snow, but are scary on packed snow they were not overly noisy, never had a puncture or debeaded a tire. Great for the price. Took them off at 13/32 and they were at the end of there usable off-road life.

Thin side wall. These are 8 ply and I've had 6 ply hold up better. Ripped 2 tires from sticks.
