No I haven’t. I did consider them though.

It was bucketing down coming home tonight with lots of water on the road and not a hint of aquaplaning , pretty happy with them so far.

We've finally had some decent rain and the resultant wet roads and I can confirm that the wet weather performance is much better than the Nitto Terra Grapplers I had on previously.

One particular roundabout (off camber) that the Nittos would always understeer on no matter how slow I went in produced no understeer with the Monstas. Corners which I would approach with trepidation previously are now driven through with no hint of slippage. There is more noise but it is acceptable.

Hi mate can I ask where this was at? Are they good offroad? thanks

Tempe tyres, I’ve yet to try them off road.

I've got my D3 now looking for tyres, I'd love to give the Monster AT's a go and I found them in 285 60 r18, very nice size but does anyone know about potential rubbing issues? It'd be great to fit them at $205 each.

Bought a set of Falken Wildpeak ATW3 for $205 a Tyre plus you get a $100 e-gift card by redemption.

265/60R18 and are a really good fit, nice aggressive look and very good on the wet roads so far.

No scrubbing anywhere, even at full lock on access height (fitted to a 12 D4).
