Grabber UHP's - any good?

Anyone any experience on the General Grabber UHP's???
Just thinking about something with a meatier tread & profile, but mainly for road use.

I've just swapped a set of 19" UHP's for a set of MTR's
IMHO the UHP's had LESS aggresive tread than my Scorpions.............

will re-check the Scorpions then Bodsy!
MTR's are no use to me - mainly motorway miles & they don't do in my size!

Thanks Ryan, but reckon these will be expensive coming in from the States, compared to what I'm getting [see below].

BarryG, good to hear that they're good, as I've already ordered.
And guess what, my tyre dealer is supplying, fittinge, vat, etc,etc all for £101 per wheel.
And thats 295/45/R20's 114V!!
damn good value.
Lookin forward to having them fitted on Tuesday!

What is the difference between the Grabber UHP and the Grabber AT?

The UHP is predominately an Ultra High Performance road tyre.
Whilst the AT is and All Terrain tyre.
