True but if I want road tyres, I'd buy HTs. These tyres were made with the off-road in mind and that is what I'm looking at. For a budget off-road tyre, they are pretty hard to beat.

No doubt Nev, as far as the reults go they are better in the mud than Julian Clary.
I was just wondering if anyone else agreed with the test results as to their roadholding ability.
From my point of view I do about half half, so the road bit is important.........At least to lil ol me
