Looks good. Does not look very aggressive though.I still think duratracs are the best looking but in terms or performance i have no idea compared to this.

Certainly doesn't look as aggressive as the Wrangler Duratrac but I like that. The Wrangler is more tire than I need and perhaps others are in the same boat.

Ugh I might have to look into this.

I love my 20" black / machined stormers and Wildpeaks, but WOW the performance hit is absolutely SHOCKING.

The thing just luuuuuugs along through the gears now. I guess the impact on the final drive ratio is more significant than I've read about.

I think I went from 30" even to about "31.78" or something around there... almost 2".

I run 30" Nokians half the year and 32" MT/Rs the other half. While I wouldn't say my LR3 "lugs along" with the bigger MT/Rs on, the performance difference with the 30s mounted is marked.

On the flip side, the off-road performance difference with the larger MT/Rs is even greater.

I just put on Toyo open country H/T's and love them. I think they are a bit more aggressive looking but have siping similar to the michelins. Great in rain, we'll see how they do in snow this winter.
