This is a great tire for every day use and is by far one of the best off road snow tire I ever had, drove to vermont in a blizzard thru 14 inches of fresh powder with no problem what so ever the name hurculees says it all. I am on my second set and got almost 40,000 out of my old set, for a mud terrain tire they outlast my friends pro comps by 18,000 miles. And bf goodrich by 12,000.

Bought mine 3yrs ago and have used it extensively both on winching vehicles and trees and other projects, and it has performed as needed. machined a new handle from aluminium, no more problems. Mine is mounted on my 91 Hilux 4x4

I have a 2WD F-250 that has always struggled on snow & ice. I had a set of tires on it previously that claimed to be mud & snow rated, but I still slid all over the place. After loading down the truck with 600 lbs of sand, I still had no traction, so I went down to the tire store and got four of these (235/85 R-16) and had them studded. Total price was $610 after tax.
I've driven on these for a week now in very icy and snowy conditions. They are the only tires I've ever had that can keep that truck under control for winter driving. With the studs, they even are good on ice.
I still have sandbags in the bed, and that helps. This morning my wife and I had no work because of Thanksgiving, so we decided to take the truck on some unmaintained mountain roads and see how the tires fared. Well, there was 5 to 6" of snow everywhere, and some parts had snow drifts at least 12" deep. The trails were also steep at times, but the tires were able to push through everything we threw at them. Granted, the truck kept trying to fishtail from time to time, we did drift a bit through the deep parts, and I had to get a running start for the steeper hills, but how much can you ask of a 2WD truck without a true locking differential?
The tread pattern is impressive, and they are much quieter than the less-impressive tires they replaced. I am very inclined to buy another set for the summer, since studs are only legal in the winter months here. I can't wait to go play in the mud!

35x12.5 R18. They just keep chugging along on super muddy Iowa dirt roads, farm lanes, fields, etc. Go places in 2 wheel drive that I'd be scared to try with stock tires. Highway noise is no problem especially considering how well they perform off road. If you're even considering a set, just buy them already.

So far I have about 1500 miles on my 35/12.50/20. I replaced 33" Nitto Terra'. I do mixed driving with my Hummer/H3. On road they are a little louder then the Terra Grapplers but quieter than other M/Ts. I have been off roading at the pine barrens and Rausch Creek, they perform great on rocks and Mud with 30psi and 20in rims.
Perfect for on & offroad mixed driving.
