I don't have them, but I did look them up while looking for tires. Some guys complain the red fades and you get pink letters. I don't know how big an issue that is, you may want to check up on it.

Any word on how they perform on the street. I know off road they dont need to keep a comfortable tire but are they on the street?

From what I hear from the oil guys next door as we sit and bullsh*t about trucks, they seem to be fairly good on pavement and good in sand, but not worth the red ink on the lettering in mud, snow, gravel, ice, or hard packed bush trails. Never run a set before, but thought I'd chime that in because it steered me away from them.
I usually prod these guys for their preferences because they beat the CRAP out of their trucks in some of the worst imaginable areas.

Checked out the 12.50 x 35s at a shop last December. Was considering them but ditched the idea because:

1. very heavy
2. wider than expected
3. didn't want to have a "marked" truck

Don't see many of them on the road, in fact don't see any.
