Looking at the sidewalls here you can see they have a rough time in the rock but I've never had any problems.

Mine have been on for over a year and are quieter on the road than my worn BFG AT's were. They cop a bit of a beating in the rock etc and I've had no problems with them at all. In fact I'm very happy with them, they just need sidebiters.

Looks liek a fun little ledge.
Pity about the no side biters but still for the money they cant be too bad considering the reviews on here.
Having used a lot of the old school MT's like BFG's Cooper STT's I wouldnt pay big money for any of them over cheapies.
Maybe for soemthing a bit more specialised it's worth paying another $100+ per tyre, but for a standard muddy pattern there's nothing in them for tread pattern.
The softer compound ones may wear quicker but you get it bakc in grip, road manners and better tyre noise.

The Nankangs like the rock, the softish compound really helps and now they've done a few KM's on the XJ they bag out better as well. To be honest I dont even know if they really wear that quickly, I dont daily drive the Jeep but these tyres have done about 20,000km so far and are still looking pretty good, easily get another 40,000 out of them and by then I'll want something else anyway.

tyres
the 33x12.5x15 cos tme $178.50 ea fitted and balanced. That was a pretty damn good price 6 months ago, even the distributer thoguht so speaking to him about a month later. for $150 i wouldnt be so sure theyre the 33". The 33"s started out at $245 ea not fitted and blanced. I still rate them for sure, as a cheapy theyre awesome, they seem like theyd vulnerable, and mine always look like Steve F's in that menai pick all scuffed up and what not, but im yet to do a sidewall

My BFG's and my current Coopers looked the same too.
Sidewalls are funny things and they pop when they shouldnt and hang tough when you least expect it.

when you think you might do one on the sharp shale and rock ledges it never happens, but youre bound to do one in a carpark at the supermarket or something.
theyve held up so far these ones, but like someone was saying before, they do get a bit bulgy, a bit lumpy.
