Pretty happy so far with handling , smoothness and silence. Great in the wet and quite acceptable in snow. Gravel and muddy tracks they performed fine and after 5000km they are hardly worn. Overall i woukd recommend them and they are cheap for a 255/55/19, $260 odd a tyre.

If they are the highway ones I have been through 3 or 4 sets, very happy with them but watch them past about 60k as in my experience the last 30-40 percent of tread seems to wear off in the last 5 percent of tyre.

Strangely enough I got places with them that kitted out d2's couldn't on big knobbly tyres.

Not nexens but my cheap and cheerful HT 19s have been good on gravel roads. I might have wasted my money on GOE 18s. Not really.

I've also been very impressed with the RRVs off road traction on HT tyres.

Yep, I've been very happy with the 2 sets I've gone through and they are half the price of anythung else I've found. :)
