Yes I do have them and they live up to the name. For 33's they are the quietest tires and a nice smooth ride. The only downfall I have noticed is they suck in snow. They dont get real good traction due to the snow packing on the tires. Everything else has been good though

Yeah, but I think you may have the same result as snow with packed mud in the tires if you go through some cakey shit

Sweet man, I know they are expensive too. I lucked out and found mine in NY on craiglslist and got them dirt cheap. They only have 1k in miles on them
