I sure did! They are great in snow and not bad on ice. I REALLY have to work to spin the tires ha ha. Haven't had to use 4wd yet. As for mud...I'll probably have to wait til spring lol.

I had a set and thought they were a great AT tire in the winter and ok in the mud.The only down side to mine was tread life.Tread wear was even and needed very little wheight to balance them. In fact one didn't need any at all.I went with coopers this time hoping for better tread life.Engoy your nitto's I did.
