Last week I commuted to work a few days on the XT (80km round trip) and the T63's performed well.

They are no nosier then the Metzlers and actually track BETTER on the grooves.

That said I've been taking the corners gently as you can certainly feel the edges dont grip any where near a road tyre.

Someone asked earlier "What are Knobbys really like" ?

* From a "Feel" point of view - I find very little difference to the Metzlers
* From a "Grip" point of view - In the dry - they're fine.. Im too chicken to try them in the wet
* Looks - The BEEZ KNEEZ... :-)
