Had these fitted after my stock Bridgestone Duelers clapped out after around 40,000 km, the ride comfort and noise were noticeably better. On-road performance is great in the dry and pretty good in the wet, it holds on around a wet roundabout. Off-road is also very good but saying that I only really drive gravel roads no real off-roading. They have lasted over 100,000 km now which is amazing and very good value for money. Highly Recommended!!

Originally had the Goodyear wranglers and were replaced due to being noisy and dangerous in the wet for the Michelin Lattitude Cross. We were so happy with these that they were replaced with the LTX Force. I must say I was nervous as the blocky design being noisy and slippery in the wet. I was wrong. These are really good in the wet inspiring confidence and only have a very slight hum at around 100km/h on a very smooth road (a rare find these days). They have great grip on the gravel and have not let us down with soft roading along with zero punctures to date (unlike the wranglers that had several in same time period) I would happily have these tyres again however, have other tyre manufacturers caught up and overtaken...? I found these to be good value but must be notes that there is some scalloping of the side treads but unsure if this is due to a poor wheel alignment at time of fitting or tyre design.

Not good for rural dirt roads. Puncture easily. Wear quickly. Won’t get them again.

The tyres are quite for an AT tyre, ride is good and they steer very well. They perform well in the dry and are very grippy when going around corners and braking. They are wearing very good still showing the 9mm deep tread as when put on new.
