Im not saying they are and MT by any means but they have done great for me in the mud and they have excellent on road manners. I am saying the are a great compromise for someone wanting something better than an A/T tire, but doesnt want the noise and ride quality of an MT.

by getting the tires spinning the lugs start to clean themselves out therefore letting the tires bite in so you can grab, this theory only works in mud, sand, snow, and other loose substances. if your on rock or other hard/solid surface then you want less wheel spin. so to answer your question yes and no depending on the surface

I had to call AAA for a friend a couple weeks ago. He intentionally left the road to make a uturn in the sand and didn't realize how soft it was.
