Thank you for the overall favorable review. I've been running this tire on my own LR4 since the summer. I went from the OE Conti, to our AZ850 performance tire, then the Trail Blade XT and now the MT. The noise is greater than the prior tires I've used, but not irritating to me. The wind noise from the roof rack is worse!

Granted, I'm biased, but they are a reasonable choice for daily use. In addition to the improved traction in non-pavement applications, they truly help to change the appearance of the truck to something more along what the Land Rover brand represents (at least in the rest of the world).

We are considering doing a group buy for the forum members if there is interest...

Interesting.

One of my biggest concerns with Rovers on the Rocks was if my stock bumpered, stock height D2 would survive.

That question is now answered, thanks ArmyRover.

I picked up some new pin striping but nothing major. I took more damage at the airport parking lot this week than I did at ROTR

Ok so a update on the snow traction question. We got a ton of snow last night to this morning and I just spent a hour out playing in it. So many un-plowed roads to enjoy lol. So far so good. The tires have been working great in the snow and when I get a little to excited with the gas pedal the traction control reigns me in. I had no problems getting where I was heading and passed quite a few lesser 4x4's.

How was the breaking in the snow? Ok, good, great, excellent?

Here in Southern California we don't get much snow but I like to head up north and find it when I can :-)
