Those are cool looking, but now that I am running 30" tires I am not going back. I wish more ATV/UTV manufactures would start offering sizes larger than 27". I drive mine 99.9% of the time in the dirt, so I like the aggressive tread patterns like the ones you posted, but the pavement will retire them quickly.

I am considering these next go around though:

Mainly because mine are wearing fast & they don't balance worth a damn.

Look at my gallery. My tires are nearly the same pattern and are Dunlop, 31" and balance. Bought them used on Craigslist and after 3 years show no new wear. Drive well on pavement. dirt, slick rock and are DOT. Don't know about mud, I don't do mud ! The guy had them on his Jeep and was going even bigger.
