I second that. I have been really pleased with my MT/R ever since I got them. They handled great on snow this winter and are also great on trails (although I haven't done anything that would be called rock-crawling with them).I am careful driving on wet pavement but never experienced aqua-planning (the tires are not sipped). I have about 15,000 kilometres on them and have not noticed any thread loss. I keep them inflated at 40 psi in the city.
