I dont know abt 15" but I replaced my 16" bridgestone dueler ht OEM tires on my Landcruiser because of the abyssmal offroad performance of the OEM Bridgestones and got a marked improvement in offroad traction. The big surprise for me was despite the more aggressively offroad pattern of the scorpAT's, I noticed tremendous improvement in my LC's ON-ROAD handling! I have been using them for abt 10K kilometers so far in the Philippines where you might consider travelling even on our paved roads to be offroading! I bought the new Scorpion AT's because they're S-rated and are DOT A-rated for wet traction. I beleive they corner better (no howling) bec of stiffer sidewalls than the norm. Oh yeah, and they look cool.
