Strengths and weaknesses
A cult-favourite overland tyre famous for its indestructible carcass and 9,000+ mile lifespan.
Where it's good
- Owners praise its rock and gravel performance across remote terrain.
Where it falls short
- Riders warn that the continuous centre rubber strip on wider rear sizes spins on wet grass/mud and can feel hard and slick on cold, wet road paint.
Based on aggregated owner feedback and independent tyre reviews, not a single source.
Holloway ratings
Seven separate scores, not one blended number, since a tyre that's brilliant in mud can be miserable on a wet motorway link, and vice versa.
