a general google search said this:
"Mickey Thompson Performance Tires & Wheels has revived an old favorite, now named the Dick Cepek Kevlar F-C. The Kevlar part is because that’s the belt material used in this bias-belted tire, and the F-C naturally stands for Fun Country. When this was written, this 36x16.50-15 was the smallest size of these capable treads that was available."
that is damn expensive though dude, jebus, just get swampers...
oh yeah, web site for pics of Mr Cepek

Quite the opposite, i'd say they'd be very good in snow or sand, but from everything i've read they're pretty useless in anything else. Gonads had them on his yellow hilux many moons ago... mickbj42 would be able to provide more info as he is gonads's bitch......opps i mean business partner !!
