    Excellent in the wet, dry, and dirt on the D2.
    A bit squirmy on the work Trytoo, but they are 75 profile vs 60 on the D2.
    Outright grip on the Trytoo is so far above the OE Bridgestone's in wet and dry cornering and braking it isn't funny

    Can't give a mileage figure, I'm lucky to have done 10,000km on the D2 ones so far.
    Probably 20,000km on the Trytoo.

    I have a set probably done about 15,000km very impressed so far. Dealer told me they may be a bit loud on the highway but to be honest i can not hear a thing.

    I have heard others say they are garbage on other utes, ect, and they say in the wet is the worst. I am wondering if its got something to do with 2wd vs 4wd because my are brilliant in the wet too

    They are my tyre of choice with our D4 on 18's, only done about 10,000 with this one and great so far. Another prevoius vehicle, had 70k on the Falkens a lot on dirt roads. Fantastic in all conditions including in the wet on the black top. At this point l will be sticking with them.

    Regards
    Geoff

    On my D4 we’ve just rolled through 50k and plenty left…

    This is in 265/60 18 which has less tread than the 16” sizes.

    I don't know who 'they' are and what they are comparing wet weather performance to?

    It's the best wet weather AT I've used.
    If you overstep the mark, breakaway is nice and predictable. (I tend to drive a lot harder/faster than the average punter)

    275 55 20 on my RRS just over 20K about 1/3 worn, definitely the best AT tire I have driven on the road wet or dry. Noise is better than most ATs also. I don't care if they don't last as long as others as I prioritise grip over longevity when driving a 2.5t 500hp wagon.

    That is exactly the way I roll but seldom do I see it mentioned in tyre discussions. The vast majority of comments revolve around tread wear.
