Is it for a purely off road / farm vehicle, or will it be doing quite a bit of road miles as well?

Cooper stt good tyres but also ran cooper st maxx and kumho mt51 which weren’t quite as aggressive or as good in the mud as the stt but better than an at.

Insa Turbo Dakars are remoulds with the same tread pattern as BFG Mud Terrains, but at half the price. I’m on my second set and still very pleased with them.
However, any ‘proper’ off road tyre will be noisy on the road, so may need to have a decent stereo too, if you travel any distance.

Any Mud tyres are going to be noisy.
That's the trade off if you need them.
Years ago I found the BFG had a great tread pattern, but the carcass didn't seem as tough as it could be, especially if you also have a lot of rock / stone. I stopped buying BFG then because I was having too many carcass failures at road speed while still having lots of tread.
That was 20 yrs ago I will add . . .

BFG have the best chance of getting you back home.

Not if the tyre blows out at high speed. ( which happened frequently to me about 20 yrs ago, that's why I stopped buying them ) because it's been bruised or damaged somehow
Hopefully they are stronger now than they used to be, but back then they just weren't heavy enough for a true "light truck" tyre

Dunno about the UK market, but there are heaps of different Mud tyres out there.
A lot of the major brands have fairly similar looking tread patterns

Depends how aggressive a pattern you want. For a dedicated off-roader mud tyre it's hard to go past Simex
Some of the cheaper Chinese/Asian tyres actually do pretty well, just they use weird compounds that don't last so well if you are on-road with them, it's always a compromise.
You can definitely spend money on "the brand" instead of "the rubber" when it comes to tyres.

If your not worried about road noise then the insa turbo special tracks are the ones to have, I'd say at least 80% of the group's I go off roading with run them, including myself
