They are a quality tyre.

Do it right - use Hammerite

Time for an update on the urban terrain, I have now got a decent amount of miles on these on all four corners and my astonishment continues unabated. With all four on the availability of grip on even the most muddy of tracks is simply outstanding with the caveat that I have yet to have the diffs touching and I accept that will have a significant negative impact on progress. On dry tarmacadam the grip is more like a touring car than an suv you will back off before they do. On wet tarmacadam it's no different to if it were dry, they just bite down and go. Snow and ice if you are being sensible are not really an issue as these offer a wide warning zone that you are pushing it before they let go totally both in terms of traction and cornering, though if you are bored a heavy right foot is enough to be sideways but some skills are essential to maintain full hero drifting as they want to grip.

i'm running those dynapro atm rf 10 and i love them.
relativelly cheap, great grip in the dry, very nice on sand and dirt.
have to be careful in the wet on the roundabouts and not sure how they would perform in mud...
however, i drive very agressively in dry tarmac, done 20000kms and they still show almost no wear. before i got them i remember reading on some aussie forum that people ran them for almost 80000kms. very good bang for the buck.
