I need some new tires badly. I'm not going to be doing much off roading but I might pull the occasional tree out of the ground. I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with Falken Ziex STZ 04 tires.

my wife has the ziex on her corrolla, work good on the road, id never try to pull a tree with em, even if they were on my X

Try General Tire's AT-Grabber. Same performance as BF Goodrich but significantly cheaper. I have them on mine and get good on-road performance, barely noticeable hum and no degredation in my mileage.

General Tire also comes well reviewed by some of the 4x4 magazines for putting more money into R&D than advertising like other big-name brands. The majority of user reviews are very positive if you Google them.

I have mastercraft AWT's on my street truck. great on the road and in snow, fine for dirt/gravel roads. They're actually more like an A/T, but very good on the road. Highly recommend.

I am just about to replace my current set of tires, the Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo's. I am replacing them with the exact same tires, because they are sick!
I have had them on snow, ice, deep mud, etc. and they perform better than the BFG KO's that i initially bought. I have a '00 SE, and the revos give me no noise on the road and perform great off road.
