Look like a copy of the Khumo Ventura KL57? The Khumo get good reviews, so who knows.

Id doubt it from the tread patern. However some at's can be really good and some can be garbage.

They are MTs not ATs ;)

They're a pretty standard mud terrain pattern so in most scenarios they'll do fine, only in thick sticky clay and some steep climbs you might find you want more traction.

Are you mostly going to be doing trials/pay and plays or a bit of everything including laning? If the later they'll be fine.

On the plus side with less aggressive tyres you are less likely to break stuff if you are thrashing it.
