You realise Arvin that they are a re-mould tyre? That's why they are cheap. 2nd hand tyres with new tread and part of the sidewalls.

There is also a more aggressive tyre available than the one you were looking at.

Because of the size and weight of them by the time you add freight for i assume 5 tyres you will be spending alot of coin for "cheap tyres", get some local and better quality, good deals come up on trademe every now and then

I found this part interesting

Kedge Grip: Our own unique blend of crushed (recycled) glass and crushed walnut shell particle blended into our full grade truck rubber. Kedge Grip acts in a twofold way; first the walnut shell is designed to come out leaving small (approximately 1 mm) size pits in the tread surface that will act as additional siping and create more traction edges to grip the road. The second is the crushed glass which is designed to stay in longer and create a gritty surface to help anchor you to the road. Does it really work? Don’t take our word for it, read some of the testimonials. Also, check out the 4Wheeler magazine (though under a different name that we are not allowed to use any longer due to trademark issues) in the August 2009 issue. They consistently had excellent results with our Kedge Grip.
