Has anyone on here run these Sport King tires before and can relay their experience with them?
From what I can find the Sport Kings are made by Medalist who are a Michelin owned company. Michelin apparently also owns the BFG company. These Sport Kings appear to have some of the traits/designs of the BF Goodrich A/T KO but without the rim protector (that I can see) or the third belt in the sidewall. At any rate they are quite a few bucks less expensive than the BFG A/T and are a good looking tire. Only available in a few limited 15" and 16" tire sizes. Like a 265/75/15!!!!.
3 of 4 customer reviews appear to be very positive... but I am skeptical of these reviews. I never really know who is providing them. People from opposing tire companies or... people from the tire manufacturer.
