    Christian, you know what I am going to ask you, right?

    Why am I seeing your front tire spinning? Open Differentials because you were in the VSC OFF MODE while in H4... or was it L4 with A-TRAC off (and locker off)?

    I know you do... part of why I ask/post is for the unseen and unheard masses reading this forum...

    Then all four tires were spinning equally as no one tire had more traction. Sure, that could be the case... hard to imaging in rocky/muddy combined soil... Like the FJ video of A-TRAC in "sugar sand" where all four tires are rotating the same.

    So, the terrain requires 'meatier' tires to create more traction than the Rugged Fails... What do you think...? What tire do you like?

    What do you think of Hankook Dynopros? I haven't heard anything bad about them... and I would never consider them if I hadn't seen HB Murphy and ToucanV13 running them... then after reading the good reviews here, and seeing the price, would consider them.

    If money was no object, I would get the new General Grabbers...

    I have had great experience with Toyo ATs , Cooper ATRs as well...

    But, I would never buy BFG All Terrain TAs... I have seen FAR TOO many of them with blown out sidewalls.
