Guessing you mean safe? They are supposed to be but be aware they aren't legal in all states. I personally wouldn't run them but lots do.

i would not trust re-treads on my front tires, at highway speed if they seperate you will just think death wobble is bad, especially if you have a lifted jeep and forgot to put your sway bar disconnects back on. just sayin....

even off road, if your spinning your tires on a rock crawl, they could seperate. if you go with re-treads, carry two spares. good luck.

If you're referring to treadwrights, they're awesome. I've bought three sets and all are awesome. One set of mt's and 2 sets of road tires.
