I know this is Larry's thread but I have to throw my $.02 in here. Yesterday I had a chance to try these tires out blasting deep and loose sandy washes, climbing fairly steep shailly (sp? -loose rock) slopes, and driving along tight loose shelf roads. I was aired down to 20 psi and these tires did not disappoint. They performed flawlessly.

I am running Cleghorn to Arrowhead Village this coming Thursday (7/23/09). I look forward to seeing how they perform on the, primarily, hard-packed dirt. I'll let you know.

I had a chance to try these tires out on the dirt and rock of Cleghorn and Pilot Rock yesterday. I can't say enough about how these tires are performing. I had them aired down to 18 psi. It seemed to be about perfect. The guys that were running with me did mention that the road noise when I pass them is quite loud. There was no mistaking that I was coming around them. The footprint from these tires are unmistakable in the dirt. They resemble dozer tracks.

You even get road noise from those tires when you're off the road!

Nitto Mud Grapplers don't need no stinkin' roads...

I've actually like the noise my Nitto MGs make - drove in a customer's FJ yesterday and it sounded, well, just too quiet...

You got that right!

That's right... I forgot about that John. We were getting road noise when blasting through the sand in AB the other day.
