I don't have them, but I saw an article in JP magazine that said they're at home in sand and on the road, not very good mud and rocks.

i wouldnt get them just because i dont live anywhere near sand all we have is mud and rocks around here plus i don't like the look of those flame treads, they just look a little cheezy to me IMO.

I think I saw the same article in Peterson's 4 Wheel and Offroad Magazine.

Yes they did say that they performed good in Sand and on the road.

But they commented that they didn't test them on a wet road and that because the tires have no sipes that they probably wouldn't have good traction when wet.

They also commented that the rubber was a soft compond that might so they might wear fast on the road.

But they do look awesome !!!

I would have bought them but they come in very limited sizes.
