These are a 6 ply radial with over 1" tread.
The same tread design as a "DucksUnlimited Wetlands" radial.
Just wondering if anyone is running them and if they are worth getting.
I need long-wear ability, good clean-out, and mainly used for making trails for others to follow.

very close.....
Same tread design, but 6 ply radials instead of 3,
and they have a deep 1"1/8 tread versus the 3/4" on your stockers.

I looked at the Bridgestone MudHooks. PRICEY $$$ and I am leaning more towards a radial than a bias. But if they last as long as the OEM Bridgestone DirtHooks have they are a strong contender for the next set.

GM DOC,
sounds like a good combo of tread and radial.
Let us know how you like them. Handling, ride, wear, etc. whenever you get to try them out

P.S. - what machine are you putting them on?

Is there any rubbing with them? are those the stock wheels too?

some info off another forum....
"these are a full 6 ply radial"
"and have been holding up well"
"stiffer sidewalls than expected"
These are only quotes mind you... just to let you know they sound like they are performing well though.

I went and bit the bullet. Got 26x9-12 and 26x11-12 XLR's .
-First impression- Looks super aggressive, DEEP lugs, I was wondering about the sidewall but they seem to be very solid on my 600lb machine.
-First Ride - smooth... cant feel those big lugs touch the ground. I suppose since only the bars are touching the ground is why the steering is noticeably lighter (added bonus). Got a short 2 mile hardpack and gravel test ride and was still impressed.
When I get more miles and different terrain I will check in.

I have some family in the tire business.
Sometimes I even get a better deal than people off the street! haha
I did some trail making (aka riding) Wed. night and was impressed with the smooth ride of these aggressive tires. Lots of bite.
Got into a steep river bank with some silt, sand and mud combination and dug into it very fast. Even though these aren't a true mud tire the lugs didn't completely plug up even after a couple attempts before going for the winch. Still smiling
