I have used a number of these tires on various projects. While it is nice to have something different than the US bartread, the downside is two-fold.
1) The size is slightly "baloonish". I sure wish they could make these in 9.00-16.

2) Secondly, and this may be an important one to some people: Despite early claims, these tires do not appear to be DOT certified.

I remember the days when I did not like the look of the US bartread tires on CMPs. Back then, it was reasonably easy for me to find ferret Dunlop trak-grip tires. But those days are gone, and I am currently satisfied with either the bar tread or these.

I sure wish Ryan had managed to get in those Chinese trak-grip knock-offs we had discussed a year or so ago.
