Have them on my GQ in 33's and had them on a Sierra in 31's.

They went well in the Sierra and are going great on thw GQ. Performed well last weekend in the mud.

Wouldnt have a clue what they are worth though...

Got them in 32's for my Triton, they are a great budget muddy with decent hook up and self cleaning - paid $225 a corner fitted for mine on 16" rims...
I wish my lawn was EMO, then it would cut itself...

Don't know if my brother is just unlucky, but he is in the process of a warranty claim on a second set of these. In 285/75r16 fitted to an 80.

First set he wore down to about 50% tread and he got some pretty bad cracks forming on the tyre around the lugs. Also the sidewall with the white lettering wore away so the whole Wall was just patchy white, very ugly. He took them back and they agree it was a warranty issue. Apparently a bad batch.

They gave him a 2nd set but he had to pay 50%, because he wore the previous set down 50%. (fair enough) Mind you, at full price not the discount he received originally.

Anyway, 2nd set is less than 2000km old and they have cracks forming around the lugs! So he will go back to the shop again.

All this aside, they are ok both on and off road!

My brother uses 15-18 psi off road. 35-40 on road

Mine have done the same after about 2000km's. Never bothered me if its ugly or not.

Will see how they go from now on.
