Pro Comp Xterrains

Anybody here have Xterrains, if so what do you think of them? Im looking into them for my next set of tires. It will be for my DD so how do they perform? On ice, snow, wet roads etc? How is the wear on them also?
Thanks

any "xtreme" or "extreme" terrain tire is going to wear fast. it is a softer compound so if u were to put them on a daily driver expect a short life. may i suggest a mud terrain tire. u still get the aggressive look with the traction u need and they are made with a harder compound, so better wear. "BFGoodrich Mud Terrain" or "Toyo Open Country M/T" have good tread life.

the above comment is true but there is nothing "Xtreme" about these tires. puncture easily no grip in mud and medicore on rock.

I recommend the MT/R

I ran them and a few other board members such as zabeard has run them all with great results.

What about the Pro comp extreme MT. A buddy of mine has them on hisDD toyota and likes them. They are almost the same as the MT/R but look like they have more sipping. Any opinions?
