They are silent armours. I have a set on the womans jeep, and so far they have been really really good tires. For size I ended up getting 285/70/17's. They are the pro grade ones, and 8 plys.
So far the ride is really good, and they are called silent armours for a reason, they are really nice and quiet!

I can't beleive your truck aint moving pud. That is an insult to your truck. If it needs a shoulder to cry on, it can come to my driveway

Did you figure out the difference between ProGrade and non?

Have you (or has she) ever had them on logging roads, minor mud, sand, or rocks? Just wondering how they are on the non-hard-core trails. They look like a pretty good all-terrain tire.

Also was wondering how they are on the street in rain and snow.

I still have no idea what the pro grade is. Im guessing nothing, and its just put on there for selling more. I have taken her jeep out on all sorts of terrain and so far they do really well. I thought they handled really well in snow. Sand they did good, and mud they did good. They didnt do as well in the mud as my mtr's on my f150 did, but that is to be expected.

When I look at those pics, the Brand Paisly song comes to mind, "mud on the tires". You gotta get some
