Pros:
Cons:

First of all, it seems odd that this tire gets a 6 rating when the only review shown gives them an 8.That is until now. I have 235/85R16's on my 2000 3/4ton GMC. I got them for winter driving so also had them studded. Also, I put them on last January so have some time on them. No summer driving however due to the studs. My wife says it is the best money we have spent in awhile. So far I have never been stuck in them in the snow, but have been stopped due to the snow being too deep. I was able to back up and go a different route. We don't have much deep mud here, but there are a lot of them on pick-ups during the winter. I did use them this hunting season in wet snow and mud with no problem.

Pros:
Cons:

I have had TSR's on my '93 Ford Ranger for about 14 months now and Drive it every day. I have put between 20K and 25K miles on them and you can hardly tell that they have warn much at all. I haven't had them in to much mud but they go through everything I've ever wanted. I think that they are a really nice snow tire as well. When I bought the truck it had GoodYear Wrangler RT/S on it and everybody, including the salesman, asked if I wanted such an aggressive tire because it would be rougher and louder but I hardly even noticed a difference. My TSR's are a fairly smooth and quiet ride. I'd recommend them to anybody looking for a long-lasting all-terrain tire.

Pros: Price, Performance, Quiet, Smooth riding, Looks
Cons: They pick up lots of gravel.

Searched a long time for econimical agressive tires to go on my '02 Silverado 2500HD ( 285/70R17 D ). Read lots of reviews. Bought these pretty much solely on those reviews. NOT DISSAPOINTED AT ALL. I have run these for one year and can't give enough praise! The are quiet on the freeway, Clean well in mud, great in deep snopw, and seem to be wearing well. The only complaint that I have is that they pick up lots of 3/4" rocks. Mud flaps are a must but I would expect that from any agressive tire.

Pros: Tire has great traction in deep mud!
Cons: i have a crushed limestone gravel driveway, they love to pickup and sling rocks

I have about 3,000 miles on my TSRs. I have an OBS Z71 Tahoe running 285/75/16 on stock wheels and 3 inches of suspension lift. My truck is just over 6,000 pounds and these tires are great. I took it to our local mud bog two weeks ago and I kept it in 2WD all day and was getting through stuff guys in 4WD were sticking n. These lugs really move some dirt and get great traction. Im going to order a set of 315/75/16 to mount on my new MT Classic III Black wheels. These will strictly be used for the mid bog and hunting season. Great wear and surprisingly really quiet on the interstate

I bought these tires December 2011 and have about 14000 miles on them. You cannot tell any signs of wear. I do keep a check on the pressure and rotate every other oil change. I am in mud alot and they perform just as well as any MT I have had on past trucks. I will for sure buy again.

Pros: Good Price, Good Wear, No Noise, Great Off Road and On
Cons: None

Great tires. I had a set on my 1997 Nissan Hardbody Pickup and now putting a new set on my F250 today. For my job I am off road quite a bit and have to do quite a bit of 4 wheelin'. These tires have never let me down period!

Pros: Great ride down the road, mileage is good, and all around traction in any terrain
Cons:

I had the old school Kelly DTR's on my truck for years, that's all I would run, and you could not tear that tire up. I got these and they have done quite well. They're on my everyday truck and expect about 35 out of em, but for the price I'll roll with that. Not disappointed at all with how they handle in the pasture filling deer feeders, feeding cows, or how they ride on the highway. Get em, you'll like em and you can't beat the price. I'm not a rock crawling weirdo or one these guys that complain about every tire they buy because they had a flat, just a fella that uses the hell out of his tires in all conditions and telling y'all that these are good tires.

Pros: Price, wear, noise level, smooth ride
Cons: holds rocks

I would give them a 10 if not for the holding such large rocks. I have beat the crap out of these tires in mud, on gravel, rocks and pavement. They hardly show any signs of wear. I have about 17,000 miles on them and they are about 70-75% it seems. Excellent tires and i will stick with them until they quit making them. You wont find a better tire in the Southern red clay, amazing.

Pros: Clean out great, great traction
Cons: pick up and hold gravel

By far the best tire I have ever had on my F250. when they were new they didnt handle so well at highway speed but absolutely amazing off road. they clean their selves so well with a little rpms behind them

Pros: Great traction on and off-road, Long tread life
Cons: Like to throw rocks, Getting loud with higher milage

I have about 49K on the set right now, and they still have decent tread left. I have put them through and in everything but rock with no problems. The tires clean out well with tire spin even in buckshot mud. The only bad thing I can say is they are getting pretty loud now that they have so many miles on them.

Pros: Great Looks, Great Wear, Quiet Smooth Ride, cheap
Cons: Holds a few rocks

Bought these in 31X10.50-15 about a year ago for my 99 Jeep TJ, I've probably got around 10-15k on them and the still look new. Very pleased at the wear considering I'm on dry pavement about 80% of the time. The tires work great on our clay roads down here in South GA, they clean out extremely well. The tires also balanced very easily, only took a 1/2OZ on one corner, and about 3/4OZ on the other 3 and they ride like a dream.

Had 315 75 18 on my 2 wheel drive colorado. I have a lock in rear and in deep mud aired down to 20psi I can both crawl through or blast through mud pits. Not to mention traction in the snow is great! Best 700$ iv spent they are quieter than the km2 that were on the Jeep and almost as good on steep hard packed hills

Pros: Great tire at a great price
Cons:

I was shopping around for 35" tires for a while and thought I found the best deal . So I went to Tire Warehouse to order Fierce Attitudes and Pro Comp wheels , when I got there he told me they had a set of Kelly TSRs in stock for $ 25.00 cheaper a tire. I bought them and love them, great in mud, rocks, snow and on the highway
