I always liked the way they handled rockgardens, mine would walk right behind a rig on 37's when I was running 31's. What I didn't like about them was when they had to climb rocks off camber. Thankfully I never flopped any of mine but have seen many dump when others didn't, most of the time when you didn't expect it to.
