- Wraparound tread gives a rugged look and increases puncture resistance
- Deep two-step sipes extend tread life and increase performance on wet roads
- Tiered side grooves for more predictable cornering
- 7-8% wider footprint than the competition for increased road contact and grip

I have an 07 xterra, 265/75/16's fit with no issues. We have 51,000 miles on a set of these with no complaints. They are comparable in performance to the BFG AT KO's that we have used in the past but much less expensive. The only drawback to the Hankook's is that they do not have the three ply sidewall like the BFG's. If you are a hard core wheeler these are probably not for you. If you need a decent wearing highway tire, that performs well off-road these are your tires! They have a deep tread which requires rotation about every 10 thousand miles(or else they will start to vibrate when braking), I keep them aired to 40 PSI to keep the TPMS system in the xterra happy. Traction wise they have been equal to the BFG's. Because of the deep tread they are a little noisey but I notice it more around town and coming to a stop than on the highway, but they are not loud (for an all terrain tire) by any means.
I have the 235 65 15 on my jeep Cherokee, and I love this tire. Ive had em for about 10k miles now, and I haven't seen any tread wear. Don't know how you can run a tire for only 150 miles and destroy it, but if I had to take a guess its driving style more so than the tires fault. Off road I have plenty of traction when I need it, I air down to about 19 psi for the rocks. The tires handle ok in 2wd for snow and ice, but as soon as I put it in 4h I'm king of the road. Very quiet tire, much more so than the bfg at/m, and they perform just as well if not better than the bfg's do. Over all I'm very satisfied with this tire.
