From my experience with 33" claws at 6 lbs they are definitely worth it. Excellent traction in snow, mud and hills, poor traction on ice, smooth trail ride, noisey on the high way, have to be carefull in the rocks, weak side walls but they form good to ruts that your trying to climb out of or anything else, side biters work good for climbing out of ruts when you're hung up. I've found that with other tires when I get in the mud I can't steer, just slide back and forth in ruts, with these aired down the jeep pulls in whatever direction you steer it. Very good wear on the high way. They are a good tire in my opinion, I didn't like them at 12 lbs before I had bead locks but at 6 lbs they are a totally different tire.
