    Brand: Hankook
    Model: Dynapro ATM RF10
    Size: 225/75/16
    Price: Don't remember... they're VERY affordable tires
    Wheel used: Stock wheels
    Lift: N/A- these are on my wifes stock KK

    SNOW:

    Let me start by saying that these are on my wifes Liberty. They replaced the stock tires last winter. Her KK is 2WD with selectable 4x4... not AWD like (most of) our XK's. We got so much snow last winter and her KK was about as useful as a supercharged mustang in the snow; very disappointing. Even in 4x4 it just didn't want to go anywhere. We bought the vehicle used and the tires only had 30k miles on them... but i decided they had to go. So we threw on a set of the Hankooks..... The rest is history!

    These Dynapro's were taking the KK places in 2wd that was beyond a struggle in 4x4. It was almost like we magically installed some lockers along with the tires...

    ROAD:

    Road manners are great. Very quiet tire.

    RAIN:

    Again... a HUGE improvement over stock. The KK is a "peppy" vehicle with the 3.7L. With the stock tires you had to be careful because you could easily spin the tires in the rain. With the ATM's, I very rarely lose traction when the roads are wet... i'd really have to hit the gas quick and have the wheel turned.

    LOOKS:

    These tires are very aggressive looking for an A/T. I especially like the sidewalls which really improve the look of the vehicle from the side. Even at stock height and stock sized tires, the sidewall design makes the vehicle look more rugged.

    OVERALL:

    These tires are VERY affordable. I can't speak much for longevity.... but I'd highly recommend them. Let's put it this way, if I was getting new A/T only tires for my XK, i'd consider these tires even though I have a proven winner with my current AT2's. I would actually give the Hankooks the edge in the "looks" department.

    PICTURES:

    Sorry... slacking on pics of the KK so i'll post what i can
