Goodyear Wrangler MT/R with Kevlar
The Revolutionary Off-Road Tire Built With The Rugged Toughness of DuPont(TM) Kevlar(R) For Enhanced Sidewall Puncture Resistance
The Wrangler MT/R with Kevlar(R) (MT/R - Maximum Traction/Reinforced) is Goodyear's Off-Road Maximum Traction tire developed for light truck driving enthusiasts who take off-road traction seriously. The Wrangler MT/R with Kevlar is designed to increase tire toughness when it conquers mud, crawls over rocks and explores trails.
TOUGH GETS TOUGHER WITH KEVLAR(R) - The innovative use of Kevlar(R) helps bring superb sidewall cut and puncture resistance when driving off-road. It also helps reinforce the sidewall for driving on pavement.
DUPONT(TM) KEVLAR(R) REINFORCED SIDEWALLS help increase sidewall puncture resistance by 35% for confidence in tough terrain
The Wrangler MT/R with Kevlar features a silica rubber tread compound molded into an asymmetric tread design that combines off-road traction with on-road handling and wet traction. Goodyear's advanced mud-flow geometry tread design enhances self-cleaning capabilities while shoulder blocks (which alternate being stepped in and out) and a wraparound tread design on the upper sidewall increase traction in mud, sand, ruts and rocks. The tire's internal structure features twin steel belts and is Goodyear's first off-road tire to incorporate Dupont Kevlar, an innovative material that's, pound for pound, five times stronger than steel. The use of Kevlar sidewall reinforcement brings enhanced cut and puncture resistance to an area of the tire that demands extra toughness when driving off-road (increasing sidewall cut and puncture resistance by about 35% compared to the original Wrangler MT/R). The Kevlar also helps stabilize the sidewalls when drivers return to the pavement for the ride home.
While branded with the M+S symbol, their typical oversize applications, use of extra-large smooth lugs and minimal snow-biting sipes often challenges an Off-Road Maximum Traction tire's on-road wintertime traction in slush, packed snow and on ice.

Weak sidewalls, wear quickly

Was running 35X12.50X17 on a 2003 4Runner. 2 tires now have sidewall punctures which is a big turnoff. Noticed that the 315's have more load capacity and heard the 35's are discontinued. Sucks to be me. Would never buy this tire again given the low mileage and loss of tread and two expensive piles of rubber laying around. They did well in snow and mud.

Very Noisy, rough ride on streets, tread durability sucks!

Put these on my Ford F250 4x4. Rotate every 5,000. Tread on 2 tires just fell apart. Worst MTR I have every owned. Stay clear!

Ugly design

Bought a set of 245/75R16s for my 2001 Jeep Cherokee with 3.5" lift. these tires were equal to my 31s i had on before on regards to height. They stick pretty well to the lava rock around here, never had a sidewall puncture. Handles pretty well in deep mud and in Ice and snow. the tread design is ugly. but who cares when the performance is there. I DO NOT recommend these for HD truck installation. Had a set of 2001 Dodge Cummins. and they wore out pretty quick.

Pros:

Excellent on wet pavement, No Hydroplaning, Very good Off Road in mud, rocks, and sand.
|
Cons:
|
Cost, Tread wear.

As posted in "Positive aspects of this product" These tires are Excellent on wet pavement, No Hydroplaning, Very good Off Road in mud,rocks and sand.
The only down side to these tires is the high price.
And (in our personal experience)if you do allot of off road traveling like we do the tread wears faster than I expected and that is claimed by others.
Putting tread wear aside, these tires are excellent and we are on our second in three years and ready to purchase our third set of five in one size larger. (Going to either 32X11.50R15LT or LT265/75R16 from a 245-75-16.
