Looks like it has good reviews and it has an aggressive look

I had a set and they only lasted me 20k miles. They feathered badly on the front (even had the alignment checked more than once and it was fine) and got very load over time.

I had them before and they wore out fast!!!! Go with Duratracs they go through anything great on the highway and last forever as long as you rotate them and have a alignment done.

stay away from the Nittos on these vehicles, or at least the Load E rated ones. They don't help the wear n tear on your control arm bushings due to the weight of the tire.

How much do they weigh? I ran E rated REV02s for about 20k kms, and everything still seems nice and tight. they were 48lbs each.

They were great on my 05 Xterra Offroad

Better than anything else I've seen/heard on the highway.

In the mud they were great, in the snow even better.

I'd say best for the $$$

do not put these on your Pathy, the weight of the tires will cause issues with your bushings in the long run.
