I seem to recall that Ashley is running a set of them on her Amigo, and that she really liked them. --- I'll see if I can scare-up a photo.

Six Isuzus, so far... still have three of them.

I have a set on my Axiom. On my Axiom they perform well on dry pavement, mud and dirt. Not to much road noise.

Eh, most of the complaints I've read about this tire are pretty weak.
This is a great mudder, its cheap, wears very well, relatively quiet on the road, and its a sweet looking tire.
Anyone who's interested should jump on it, they're great! You should also read the positive feedback on Tirerack, or just run a search on the mud rovers!

Hey man, one of the Yota guys had some and loved them. He said that for the price they are hard to beat. I think he got his 31x10.5's for like $90 each or something at discount tire. PM me if you want his contact info. He is here in Dallas too. Maybe he would be interested in a 99 trooper :> On the blue one: My bit of input <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/coolg.gif" alt="" /> And yes, that is at Barnwell in front of the xterra camp <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I replaced my BFG All Terrain with a set of Dunlop Mud Rovers Radial 32X11.5 15 last December. They work well on dry and wet pavement at freeway speeds they make some noise but that's to be expected. I love them in the sand, dirt and mud the lugs clean themselves pretty well; I haven't taken them into any bogs so I can't say how they work in really deep mud. I'm happy with the tires and how they perform and would purchase another set.
My 2 cents!

I had a set of Dunlops, not the mud rover, but the Rover RV. They were excellent in the rain, but lousy in the snow. My newer more aggressive mud tires were louder and heavier, but were so much better in the snow. If I were to get another set of mud tires though, they might be it. Other wise, dunlop builds some good tires.
