Yep, I run them and am impressed with them. They clear mud at low revs, grip real good on ice and snow, do good in sand and handle rocky shit real well. Only comment I have is when you let pressures down they can pop off the rim and/or get mud/sticks in the bead, much like a BFG does. I paid $343 retail from 4wd accessories in CHCH, he hjas done a deal with Kumho. I hear that they are going for over $500 in oz. I use the truck as a daily runner and so far have had them on for 4 mths with no wear.
