I put a stone through one in Wales last year, and when I when to have it repaired, the shop said that they saw quite a lot of XP2000 with similar damage - they're not really tough enough for off road use.

I only had one on one corner (emergency purchase after a puncture on Christmas eve) so I can't really comment on performance wrt. grip etc.

Oh, and it wasn't repairable either.

What was disappointing was that it wasn't that sharp - it was triangular, but the "sharp" end was still nearly the size of my little finger!

still for a tyre that must be 65% on road and 35% off road mainly the verge! they cant be that bad? At best i would have thought they would be fifty/fifty.
