Have you guys ever heard of this tire?

Over on the commander forums I saw someone who posted a pic of these tires and was wondering if anyone has ever heard of them. They look cool IMO, i wonder if they are any good in the mud!

EDIT: Ok for some reason it wont let me insert and image?

Anyways i guess you guys wont get a pic. Maybe someone else can post the pic. It's a Nokian Vatiiva MT

Hey man thanks for posting the pic. Unfortunately i would need at least a 2 inch lift on the commander to fit them because the smalles size they have for a 17 inch wheel is 265/70R17. That would rub stock on the commander!

They almost look like a Nitto Mud Grappler. Which is a very good tire.

I thought that same thing when i first looked at them. They carry the price tag of a Nitto mud grappler too. They cost $228 a piece for 285/75R16's.
