Personally I think it is to close to call each one shows some advantage here or there but it's almost impossible at least for me to see much of a difference one way or the other and thats after watching both videos multiple times great work Joe.

Are you running the same foams and what are you using? Sorry for all the Queastions Just trying to pick you brain a little because mine seems to be getting a little foggy with all with all of the options and possabilitys Thanks
Both sets are on SLW's in the back just one set is black.With that said the Sedonas are heavier than the leopards,a little over a ounce each.
I just like the panther tire I guess.The Sedona has a couple of things i do not like mainly the big side lugs,and if they get hooked they are hooked.The Panther I can get to brake loose easier.But with everything said at the end of the day both tires are great and the Sedona will last longer.Its just what you like to drive there is not enough difference between the two for the tire to make the choice.

It's nice to see a comparison on the same lines to be able to see actual differences for a change Nice work Joe.

I'm gonna have to agree with the rest of the guys the sedonas on a line for line view seemed to always out do those leopards.....from my own testing I notice the sedonas do take a different drive style then the panthers...one thing I really liked about the panthers was they seem to "unwad" alot easier then the sedonas when bound up in the cracks...

anyway great test vids I love opening two screens and watching side by side
5 star rating tech for sure!!
They do take a different driving style for sure.
The leopard will come out of stuff that the Sedona wont turn loose of.
But I guess everything has a trade off.

I agree it just comes down to which tire you fell more comfortable with. 99% of the time both tires are going to end up in the same place at the top of the climb.
Both tires will get the job done.

Looked like the Sedonas had a little bit better break over due to ground clearance. I think the sedonas with the foams from the leopards. the leopards seemed like they rolled over a little less. great driving none the less/.

Awesome videos. I am trying to select a tire for my crawler and right now I am leaning towards the sedonas. Thanks for posting this.
