we used mtr's on our trophy truck (former walker truck) and we would burn them off in 75-80 miles everyone else was running bfg ktr so we had to go that rout to stay competitive

these would look sooo sick on a H2!!

the R&d on these tires has to be very good they should perform well even if the design looks kinda $That\'s Gay$

THK Matt · « **Reply #33 on:** Jun 15, 2009, 10:56:52 PM »

apparently they are proving themselves in testing. idk they look gay and worthless

ExploreSystems · « **Reply #34 on:** Jun 17, 2009, 05:20:59 PM »

Please, Somebody buy a set and give us some solid info! They look kind of like Nittos....

THK Matt · « **Reply #35 on:** Jun 17, 2009, 06:11:24 PM »

they look retarded if you ask me.
the tread is WAY too close together.
It is by no means a "MTR = Maximum Traction / Reinforced" its an AT.

calm down, if you don't like them don't buy them

bigarms23 · « **Reply #37 on:** Jun 17, 2009, 10:59:32 PM »

what they should have done is i like the new tread pattern but wished they left the beefy sidewall

you cant just judge a tire based on looks.

ExploreSystems · « **Reply #39 on:** Jun 21, 2009, 07:21:26 PM »

...Or it's bad looks! Hopefully they surprise everybody with performance...time will tell.

84TanToy · « **Reply #40 on:** Jun 23, 2009, 11:48:11 AM »

They have a set of these at a local Wal-mart and in person the tires don't look all that bad imo

TIMS89CRAWLER · « **Reply #41 on:** Jun 23, 2009, 12:06:42 PM »

someone buy me a set and I will test them out

I personally dont like the looks of them but as stated above you cant judge a tire by its looks....

I went out with a couple guys from offroad evo to cougar buttes, and 2 of them were running the 42' flavor kevlar mtr's and the were walking up everything! i have the old mtrs and i would slip a lil before my tires grabbed trying to follow them, one of the guys had the 39 bfg crawler red label before he switched and he said that they bite way better! Im planning on getting a set of the 40s when i get rid of my 37's

Goodyear lost me as a loyal customer for years.....I'm going IROK next set....Heath.

Just wondering...

Likewise I am also curious as to what happened to cause you to form this opinion?

4runner17 · « **Reply #54 on:** Jul 07, 2009, 08:06:42 PM »

yea i just found out that i cant get them anymore, i went in to get a new tire and i can only get a bfg km2 for a replacement cause the new mtr is ugly.

Jud · « **Reply #55 on:** Jul 08, 2009, 12:10:03 AM »

I want to see pics of some on a semi built rig like most of ours. I hate when people talk

about something just because they look ugly. All the reviews I've read say they work great and a buddy of mine that works for 4Wheelparts said they look badass in person.

Dingman. · « **Reply #56 on:** Jul 08, 2009, 09:11:31 AM »

i went into a goodyear shop a couple weeks ago and saw the tire in person. I thought it looked kinda dinky, but i didn't see a tire larger than 31" in the showroom. Just like some tires look better in the bigger sizes, im sure this is one of them. Ive seen pictures of these tires and they looked better than what i saw in person. just my $0.02

Yeah, thats what I am going for with this post. People seemed to buy up the BFG mudders pretty quick when the new ones came out, I am looking forward to seeing people like us buying these tires, posting some pictures, and giving us real world feed back. All the reviews I have seen and read rave about these tires but I would like to see a 80s or 90s, SA yota running some of them in a 35-40 to see what they look like on something other than buggies, cuz thats all I have really seen pictured running them.

i havent really read this thread too much since im an irok guy, but at the rubithon i talked to a guy running the new mtrs in a 37 on hi jeep rubicon i think and he said he had the original mtrs and loves the new style. he said they do better on the rock also

4runner17 · « **Reply #59 on:** Jul 09, 2009, 08:51:56 PM »

im going to a toyo mt next now, try those out for at least a set. either 35s or 37s. the 37s are hella beefy though
