I've had a red top since building my CJ-7 back in 2002. Mounted horizontally. It has served me well over the years with plenty of hard wheeling offroad. Much of the 4 wheeling was at slow RPM with voltage dropping lower than what it probably needs to keep the alternator running at full charge speed. I've winched several hard times pulling what I'd guess to be 400 amps of demand from the battery to my Warn 9500 winch. The battery never failed me. Several times it sat for a few months without starting the engine and when it was time to crank it over, it cranked strong. I've even had to move the Jeep via the starter and cranked it up a trailer in low range on the back of this battery. Once the ignition system was repaired it cranked over strong and still going strong after 7 years of abuse. Great battery.

My 12 year old son has been riding for about 3 mo. He is still learning and he really likes the atv size trails. He has not built the confidence for the single tracks. Perfect for a newbie

I own 2 sets of tsl's38.5/16/15in and39.5/15/15in the tires are notorious for having good times in many peoples memories.They make you bravehearted and they take you through new bogs at your hearts desire just be sure you got the horses and torque to turn that rubber. Their bolted to a 79 f-150 the mud digging machine the sized 38.5/16/15in to fill all needs.Recently loaded 9 railroad ties in the bed of the truck,didn't squat and it seemed to ride better with the extra weight.The remaining life is down to less than half but the 39's are on tap waiting for action.If you plan to trail ride or explore through a pond to check if fish are biting, expect the tires to do all the above but be prepared to swim and carry tow straps.

01 F350 diesel, 37X13.50-17. I use to sell tires for 7 years. I've always had trucks and used several tires choices. I've been impressed with these tires. My truck does 80% highway as a daily driver, and 20% off road( sand, packed trails, some mud, some beach, and snow) These tires are about to be replaced and have 40,000 on them. Only ever balanced once, when installed. Very good all around tire, but its not a bogger if that is what you are looking for, as good on the street as a bfg At, but better in the mud.

Bought 2sets of the 35's Dyna Pros for a 89 full size Blazer and 77 f-150. For 170.00 per tire it was unbeatable. The tires had no reputation in my book so i gave them a chance by their appearance. With 2 years of wear its very little with most of the time on asphalt. The tires get me through mud,snow,and steering wheel high water.Never been stuck close calls but they earn there keep by all means.Low noise irratice.Smooth ride on and off road.Its a great tire,Hankook should make larger sizes to compete against other mud tire brands.I have 38's 39's TSL's which do expectedly well.Hankook would sell larger tires in 15in rims I'd be a sure buyer.

works good in mud and snow, i have a half ton pickup so no extra weight to sink me down. To all you guys saying it sukcs on ice and packed snow, do you know any tire that F***ing that does good in packed snow and ice? I don't so just drive slower and maybe save some cash and get a set of chains for ice? then you won't have something to B**ch about
