i've had the same set of x-terrains for 2 years 35-12.5-15 on a daily driver. i've had simex' and bfg muddies on the side but they're a long time sold.
I have used them in every situation mud, clay, beach, desert, bog holes, rock, snow, touring, ive done 160km/h on 15psi (not smart) and they stood up. 15psi will get u most places but sub 5psi on beadlocks and they're unstoppable.
i've not put one plug in them over 40 000km and they are wearing extreamely well. i'd dare say they're at about 50-60%.
the only con i can think of is i slashed one on a ShortyIQ STUBBY wasn't impressed! tho not so good in thick clay for their self cleaning properties.
when ppl ask what they're like i say, for the first 5000km theyll out drive simexs anywhere. after then they are the absolute best all terrain you can get!
In the pic below I have tried to demonstate, the big lug is high at one side then curves to low on the other side, it then makes the low side lower than the small lug in front of it, which gives it the very low speed vibration. They were a great tyre till they started wearing like that.

That wear is known as scalloping.. usually pressure related.. Xterrains always look like the tread is shallow from new to me.. anyone know the size of the treadblocks?
I've run 33x12.5x15 on my Bundera for a couple of years now. I'm pretty impressed with most aspects of the X Terrain. Road noise is there but is bearable.
I've had them in mud, snow, sand, clay, pretty much everything and the only real problems I found was the sideways grip. As you get that gap that almost runs straight through from one side to another, you can lose out on lateral grip. I found while going around some muddy corners I had to give some throttle to overcome some unwanted sideways movement.
Otherwise I've been happy with them, they have some good sidewall bite, and with airing down sand and rocks are fine.
great tyre had them on my 80 ,37"s they were the best tyre ive had .Had simex ,bfgs , ect would be my first choice for tyre again road,bush,mud exellent
Not a fan had them on gq coil cab and sold them about 2000km later just not enouth grip in soft mud and seemed to clog up a lot and no real side ways control just my 2c
