Rated 4 out of 5 by John27 from Great exchange policy. Ordered on line. Did not like the size of stud holes and worried about wear. Great return policy and exchange for Toyo MT.

Rated 5 out of 5 by DMPhoto from Great off reading! We took the tires off grid to the Gold Buttes in southeastern Nevada for four days shortly after the purchase. Gold Buttes is very remote, driving dirt roads and desert washes, without cell service. The tires preformed beautifully!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Abe Snake from Great upgrade Bought a set of mud terrains for the Grenadier. Had the center sections siped. Tires are pretty quiet on the highway, get great traction Offroad. Comfortable airing them down; sidewalks are very robust.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Boston 79 from love em I like the highway ride of these tires. Haven't tried them on mud and snow yet. These tires tend to set into curves much better than what I had before.
