Good for a mud tire!
Noise:
Have not owned a mud tire before, but I have heard some mud tires howling like a ghoul in your ear at 70mph. These are relatively quiet. Coming from cupped and warn A/T Les Schwab brand, they are much quieter. Before that I had Nitto Terra Grappler gen 1, which were quieter.
Dry:
Dry gravel roads have excellent grip and pretty good grip on hard packed surfaces, however pavement oddly enough is only ok. All-terrain tires have been noticeably better in dry pavement.
Wet Road:
These tires suck in the rain, I mean better than worn out A/T down to the wear bars, but not that great on wet pavement for around town. However, they are very resistant to hydroplaning.
Wet Offroad:
These are King offroad! No surprise, these tires are at home in the dirt and mud. I've been able to drive through deep mud holes at low speed with minimal wheelspin as well as ascend slick hills. I am a weekend warrior; at least two weekends of every month I am venturing off the pavement to either shoot, go mudding, or explore some PNW trails. For me, these are an awesome tire. Honestly, I would likely go back to all-terrains for the future due to lower noise levels (I like music and a quiet exhaust) but I am still happy as it sits now. They also look great.
