This is an A/Ttyre thatyou can take
off-road withconfidence thanksto its
rigid block design and asymmetric
tread pattern. Anotherfeather in its
cap is thefact that it will
withstand the onslaught from
rocks, branches and anyother
bitsof debris without any nicks

spokento several people who
run these tyres for tens of
thousandsof miles without
any dramas.This included
