Dunlop Radial Mud Rover
The Dunlop Radial Mud Rover is kind of your middle of the road mud tire that does "ok" in various conditions. Its lugs offer decent mud traction with the help of large voids spaced out enough to assist with the self cleaning of mud and debris. Aired down the sidewalls flex good however are quite thin and vulnerable with a low ply rating and a lack of wrap around tread. In snow and sand this tire does about average when compare to other mud terrain tires. Highway manners are better than expected from a mud tire with less than moderate noise level however its lack of sipes in the lugs gives it poorer traction on wet or icy roads. Tread life is also better than average. Cost is on the low side of mud terrain tires. Available sizes up to 35".

Pros:	you get what you pay for
Cons:

I guess its all a matter of opinion, but i ran the 33' mud rovers on my 92 jeep wrangler they really are not that good at all compared to other tires out there i have ran boggers, tsl's, bfg all terrians and mud terrians and i think that you get what you pay for comes in play here, you are paying a cheaper price for these tires but it would be worth your money to get a set of TSL's i got more miles out of my boggers than i did these mudrovers.

Pros:	performed beyond expectations
Cons:

Just because you get stuck is not the tire's fault. Have you ever thought about lockers or more horsepower? Also, anyone can smoke any set of tires if they have enough power. I had a set of these on my K-5 Blazer and they performed beyond expectations of such a cheap tire. I got stuck once because I bottomed out--NOT THE TIRE'S FAULT. I like these tires, however on the way to buy a set of TSL's, one of my mud rover's blew out going down the road. This event has left a bad memory with these tires, yet I still support this tire and can say that it is a worthy competitor in the mud terrain class of tires.

Pros:	Last forever, low price
Cons:	a little noisy on highway, poor grip on ice

I purchased a set of these tires 2 years ago and put 50k miles on them on my Toyota 4Runner and they still have 40% tread left, that's awesome for a mud tire and not rotating them very often. These tires plow through mud and snow with there wide lug pattern but lack performance on ice with no sipps. Overall, for the price and considering wear these tires are a great value.
