I’ve used these tyres in sand, mud, dirt and on road and pretty much everything, these tyres are amazing! Not much road noise and everything I’ve put them on they perform extremely well! So far they hardly look like they’ve worn too much and they also look awesome! Honestly can’t say a bad thing about these tyres in the time I have had them. For price wise I would definitely buy these tyres again and will be for my next set. Would defiently recommend these to a friend or anyone looking for a set of mud tyres!

N/A 33x12.5R15 45000 January 15, 2020
Overall I'm happy with the trail grappler. Majority of my driving is around the city and highway with the odd four wheel drive trip once/twice a month. They have a firm side wall so have to really drop the pressures to get them to balloon properly for rock crawling. The tread pattern is really good and great in the mud, they self clean very well. They perform well on the beach, don't really have to drop the pressures at all. They were very quiet for a proper mud Tyre when they were new however as they wore and feathered they progressively got louder which is to be expected. With regular rotating every 10k kms and balancing every 20k kms I have so far gotten around 45k kms and probably have another 10k kms of life left in them. I would buy them again however I wouldn't mind trying something different.

Taken these tyres a lot of places, had the same set on my old colorado, then transfered them to the dmax, had them up Fraser Island, running as low as 10psi without dramas, unreal grip in the soft sand with abit of power behind them.  Vic high country without a drama, lots of rocky 4wd tracks, they have some battle scars,  but rotated every 10000kms and they are wearing very well, payout half worn after roughly 45k, with lots of road work.

These tyres have proven to be long lasting as I live in the high country & my on road driving has always proven a killer for tread wear on my previous tyres. I only got around 20000km on my previous tyres, I am now getting around 40000-45000 & the off road performance has been excellent, road noise on highway has also been very good.  Overall cannot fault these tyres

They are a good value for money and good fit between a extreme off-road tire and good city tire performing well off road while providing a good city ride, providing good comfort and reasonable road noise. I would recommend to anyone looking for a good middle ground mud terrain for a good price.

N/A 265/70R17 20000 April 24, 2019
After reading glowing reviews from the US about these tyres I fitted some to my jk Wrangler. For a full mud tyre the lack of noise and wet/dry weather grip is fantastic. Easily the best Muddie I've ever had. Will definitely buy again. The Wrangler makes 206kw and it's pretty hard to brake traction in the wet let alone the dry. Their noiserer than an AT but quiet compared to other MT's I've had before. I rotate every 5k and after 20k of driving they have no scalloping and wearing really well, at this rate i should get 60-80k easily. And it's a mud tyre so excellent off-road but the correct pressure us essential.

These tires are definitely a meaner looking tyre yeah they are a little noisy on the road but still not too bad so far they have been a great tyre for me for the price they are pretty cheap compared to some. The only thing I don’t like is how much they slip on the wet road
