Look like special track and other insa copies - Depends on the price I suppose, if they are cheap enough look good for getting out of the thick stuff.

got some quotes off them (silverline) for 33x12.50x15, prices below are delivered and vat inc.

Cepak Crusher £149.50
Mickey T' Baja Claw £155.25
Mastercraft Courser MT £113.85
Cooper STT £134.98

cant talk about actual service and delivery speed etc but price wise they are better than devon4x4

the dick cepek tyres are rated well in the states from what ive seen. i always say tyres is just down to what ever floats yer boat. most modern tyres are good in the conditions they are designed for. its not like ya gotta keepem for ever. if ya dont like em just have somethin else next time.

had a good day at slab common ,the tyres worked well ,they pulled me through and over hills with ease,
anthony at silverline is  a great guy, he spent an hour with me before i decided on tyres, and has got loads in stock ,and offered to put a 35 on my jeep to see how it would look,   :-o
