The Yoko's are not ricy at all the are true truck off road tires and they too have that hard rubber and they have afactory warantee for 80,000 miles more than I can say for the BF Goodrich tires and the Yoko's also get great traction in all types of terain see for yourself look up a pic and the specs for the Yokohama Geolander At+ II's and youll understand what Im saying they are not low profile tires infact I have 31x10.5s on 15x10" rims.
