The LTZ is positioned as a Sport All Terrain tyre, not an out and out off road tyre.
It suits the needs for being a good road tyre with the ability to handle many off road surfaces.
If use is for full off road, then I'd be first to suggest another off road specific tyre.
Then however, performance would compromised for on road.
So for best of both worlds it would be two sets of wheels/tyres - but then that's a bit too much faff for me ( been there) 
 ...... always on the road less travelled 🚧

They're not all that strong that's all I'm saying. After a couple of bog standard off road sites and a few green lane trips I'd knackered two and mashed a set of wheels. Not as great a tyre as made out IMHO. Ok but not great.
Gary, what pressures were you running  In the Beginning there was nothing, which exploded.
