My guess is that is probably about all they are good for. I have not seen anyone use them.

If its muddy run TSL's
If its rocky run IROKS
If its a dd/trail rig run MTR's
If its for looks, lose the Yota

Well if all you want them to do is look good then they will probly do their job. But dont expect much if you want to go offroad.

I run Maxxis Mudder, but what we have here, is nice gumbo, red clay, stick to everything, slick as snot, mud/clay. These tire wear well and not much road noise. 4 mounted and balanced with road hazard 600 bucks. 45,000 to 50,000 miles of wear out of them.
