tire blew out on my moms explorer this fall, went to to walmart and got a set of those, very good deal for 50 bucks a tire, 4 new tires for about 250, that dont happen too often with truck tires lol. but now that its snowing i found that they are very good in snow, deep tread, i dont know alot about tread patten but i do like it lol. they look a bit more narrow then the cooper discoverer a/t that were on it, but it still sits same height etc. they are loud, but i like loud tires. looks can be VERY decieving, i didnt know what to expect from a discontinued wal-mart tire fo so cheap, but i was very happy with them
