You are a student with an '03 Rubicon?  Must be nice.  I work for a living and I only have a crappy Comanche.  LOL.

Sorry, thread hijack over, I have no idea about Dunlop Tires. 8)  :lol:

The thing i found with dunlops is the compound is kindof "hard" so it doesnt stick to the rocks as easily, but that problem is easily 90% solved by airing down.  The TrXus tires are great as well, but probably a bit more.  Depending on what type of roading you do, if the dunlops are a good enough price, try em out.

I run the dunlop mud rovers and fairly happy with them.  Wish i could say i have been into the bush with them more.

I put them on in 2002 and i have about 50% tread with about 40k or 50k on them i figure.

pm me if you want to come check them out or some pics or more info.
