Finnally picked up and installed th rocks today and I will admit at first glance I was dissapointed in the appearance of the tire until I installed them and properly inflated them! Now I love the tire it looks great and rides awsome. The Wife and I went for a 14 mile break in on the tires today and they were everything I wanted, expected and more!! I highly recomend for a rider that needs a semi slickish tire that still has wet and mild offroad traction!!!!
