There is a little manufacturer's promo video on the site which shows them in use.

They do seem to do the job they are designed for.  I've got a set put to one side to test in some proper off-road conditions, but that probably won't be for a while.

I've spoken to a chap who had a set fitted by the manufacturer, his opinion was that they do exactly what they claim to and they're well made.

I'm not sure I'd buy a set as TBH the money would be better spent on a set of tree sliders in my case (bit more armour!), but they don't look a bad buy if you're interested.

agree with the money situation. i was thinking of lifting my sporty by a few inches to compensate for my chunkier than average tyres because to be honest its not brilliant in ruts but flys through the soft stuff. money may well be better spent on that? :-k tricky :?

One of the LR mags reviewed them recently.  They came out strongly in favour.
