After about a 1,000 miles of street, rock crawling and beach\sand I am pleased. Very predictable on the street and hwy, and quiet for an aggressive tire. Aired down to about 12 psi (although I think 10 psi will be even better) these hooked up very well rockcrawling. In sand at about 25 psi they worked better then expected. They floated well and did not dig in or try to make holes.
As far a mud, I can't speak for that, but I don't like mudding anyway. I was looking for something for rocks and trails, yet w/ road manors. These appear to work well. I will report after 10K+ miles if anything changes. |

These have been great unless you get in some sticky mud. They dont clean well and they turn into slicks. I have an 88 range rover and drove 1200 miles round trip to canada for some wheelin. They were amazing in the snow, never had to chain up. Quiet on the road with no vibration. Can't comment on long term conditions as i have a set of radials i swap with when i'm not wheelin. But overall great value. I bought mine when they had their buy3 get one free deal and saved a couple hundred over BFGs. |

I have an 03 TJ x with bfg MTs which r great and an 06 rubi with these. These tires suck. Off road, i cant go up hills or get traction anywhere. On road, they are noisy and wear quickly. The big lugs make for loud driving conditions and poor gas mileage. They are also horrible in the rain. Worst tires made. |

I bought 33x12.5x15 for my 97TJ and I love them. The only thing that could be better is tread life is about 22K. Road noise is equal to an AT, finding the right street psi will eliminate cupping, and make sure that the tires are balanced by someone that isn't making minimum wage. In other words go to someplace you trust or that deals with off road tires regularly. I never had a problem with climbing anything at the OHV park. |

I got these after running a set of ProComp M/Ts. I have been pleased over the last 2 years of ownership. They do pretty good in most all surfaces. Moderate mud is no problem. Sand is pretty good. I ran 25psi on my '98 ZJ at Moab, and never had an issue with them. I did have a failure of a major suspension component. The r/f tire went through HELL coming off the trail. It sacraficed itself, but I was able to drive it out.
The tires cupped a little, but I consider it my falt because I did a backyard alignment job. They are not nearly as noisy as the M/Ts I had before them. I think they are pretty good as an all-round semi-aggressive tire. |

I replaced my BFG AT's with these recently. Firstly let me say, quiet on the hwy. When doing normal around town speed or hwy spd, I cant tell if I have the BFG's or XTerrains!
Havent done winter paved roads with them yet, however the mud holes we have been in lately, I have kept up with everyone with Swampers, BFG MT's or GY MTR's, no issues. Air down well.
A slight noise at low town speeds, nice hum actually.
Damn good rubber overall. |

I have had a set of these on my 03 wrangler & they stink. Between the uneven wear, feathering, noise, & roughness when accelerating or comming to a stop, I would not advise anyone to put them on a wrangler that is a daily driver. If your jeep is primary an off road vech. than these still stink. I have dropped down to 12 psi, rubbed the sidewall hard & crawled over some nasty things with them with only one problem. One tire seperated internally. Do not install unless you want alot of noise & problems. |

Love these. Have had 33s on TJ for 5 months and have been very pleased. I'm amazed how quiet these are on the way to the trail (and still give a great little hum as you slow to a stop), and they don't get bouncy/spungy at speed like some oversized can. They have performed very well on mixed trails with mud/gravel/sharp-loose rock. Only down is that they catch and throw small rocks when traveling on gravel - gotta be careful with top down - but most agressive treads will. Like them much better than BGF ATs I had on last truck. |

i have 33 xterrains on my jeep. they are better than all terrains but suck compared to mud tires when in the mud.i used to never get stuck until i got these tires. they dont clean in the mud at all.they are realy good in sand though and last on the road pretty good.i will not buy these tires again and they are not cheap. i recomend bfg mud terrains, tsl, tslsx, ltb, boggers, or mickey thompson baja belted if you play in the mud |

i ran the 35/12.5/R15
considering that i offroad every weekend they wear very well. they are quite. they are fantastic for rock crawling and trail riding very tough tire. rolled jeep off of 600ft cliff and the tires survived. great in the rain and snow due to its siping. equal to a bfg mud terrain in the mud. dont fall for mickey thompsons similar design these perform better. |

Way quiet especially compared to my friends MTRs. Good on rock and road conditions. Not very good in mud or snow. Great price when bought on 4 Wheel Parts buy 3 get 1 free deals they do every couple months.
Wear has been decent and even, look great, and have taken some brutal sharp rocks on the sidewall.
NOTE: They are directional, I have 35x1250x15s |
