My mom got them on her SUV a couple of weeks ago. I like them, great street tire. Her car used to spin all the time in the rain and now you have to turn off the traction control to get it to spin. You can hear them hum if your riding with the windows down but it doesn't come close to my ATs. For a truck thats primarily on the street and wants something better than the stock grapyears I would recommend them. And they have a 40,000 mile warranty.

Ive got a set, they are great tires. I just 6 6k and rotated them and they dont have any unusual wear on them. Really though I would like to get a set of street tires because I'm never off road anymore. They are 265/75 16's and if you interested I may sell them to you for cheap.

Here is a comparison test that has them and a dozen other ATs, Kumho's rate pretty well.

They come with 2 lettering and sidewall patterns depending on wheel size.

I have them on my ranger now and like them better in every category than the BFG AT and Nitto Terra Grapplers I had before.
