Description: Goodyear Wrangler MT/R


Goodyear's Wrangler MT/R evolved through research and development geared towards the rock crawling community, which helped Goodyear create one of the toughest all-around tires available on the market. Through patented compounds, the Wrangler MT/R holds up to serious abuse. Its aggressive tread pattern extends down onto the 3-ply sidewalls, providing excellent traction in a variety of terrains while resisting puncture from even the nastiest of razor rocks. Yet the Goodyear Wrangler MT/R radial is still well behaved on the street. It makes perfect sense that Jeep decided to make the Wrangler MT/R standard on the Jeep Rubicon. The Wrangler is available in sizes: LT245/75R16, LT285/75R16, 30x9.5R15C, 31x10.5R15C, 33x12.50R15LT, 32x11.50R15LT, 37x12.50-15 and even 40x13.50-17.

Manufacturers description of this tire:


Goodyear Wrangler MT/R


The state-of-the-art off-road tire includes a 3-ply sidewall and advanced silica compound for excellent durability and puncture resistance. While a new tread pattern provides increased element and lug stiffness and uniform tread wear.


As Tough As The Roads They Drive On.
It takes a tough tyre to master the roads in Asia. In fact, it takes a team of tyres. You see, Goodyear has developed an entire family of Wrangler tyres as unique as the roadways in Asia. Each Goodyear Wrangler is engineered with Goodyear's Trinuum Tyre Technology, offering an advanced combination of features for ultimate performance on smooth and rugged road conditions. So no matter where you drive in Asia, Goodyear has a Wrangler for you.


Built Strong To Last Long Trinuum Tyre Technology gives each Goodyear Wrangler its own unique design. They're all constructed to last long in Asian terrain. In fact, Goodyear Wranglers resist damage from jagged rocks, stones and sharp debris that may leave other tyres useless. You see, most Wranglers feature sturdy steel belts and a wrap-around shoulder design that protect the tread and sidewalls from hazardous cuts and punctures. Other characteristics of Goodyear Wranglers include a continuous center rib, a large uniform footprint, a deep tread, radial construction and additional tread on the outside shoulder. When you add all these features together, you get an entire team of durable Goodyear Wranglers that offer extended wear, long treadlife and strong performance in Asia. That means confidence on the road when riding with the name you can trust - Goodyear with Trinuum Tyre Technology.


Features:


3-ply sidewall construction and advanced silica compounds (Excellent resistance to cuts and tears)
Durawall Puncture Resistance Technology
Advanced mold shape and tread pattern

Pros: balanced tire that is good both on road and off road
Cons:

2nd set on a 99 chevy 6" suspension + 3" body, 35/12.5/16. The tires work very well on the road as I use the truck every day for communting, however. Like all tires, if the trucks alignment is out at all, they will burn up!





If their is something to grab underneath, these tires will find it, although they have the tendency to dig so deep that you put your self into a hole!





The lugs are fairly deep and I have had to pull out roofing nails, glass, a metal spike and the tires still held air.





The major downside of these tires is they are useless off the line in wet weather or on ice.





For anyone who is looking for a balanced tire that is good both on road and off road, these are probably your best bet. If you are looking to play in the mud all day long, I suggest go to a superswamper, they are hard to beat!





Hope it helps.

Pros: great on road as well as being great on the rocks
Cons: bit loud on the highway

I run 35" MTR's on my 89 YJ. They have been great on road as well as being great on the rocks down South. I have beat up the side walls on trees and rocks and have never cut the tire or lost a bead, even when aired down. They are a bit loud on the highway, but a pair of box speakers solved that problem.

Pros: okay in mud... but sloppy on the road when wet
Cons: $$$$$ and POOR offroad performance

I had 35's on my 3 1/2 ton tank (1987 suburban) with a 6" lift and pretty much cleared everything in my way. When i got into the middle of a huge ditch filled with mud, the tires wouldn't clear out and i got stuck. these are WAY too expensive for the performance they give. you might as well just go fork over 60 bucks more and buy some mickey thompson baja claws for that price. i'm going with the BFG mud terrains when i get new tires.

Pros: Tires wear evenly
Cons: mfgr does not make 325 or bigger

These tires have not let me down in mud, snow or rocks. Had them on my superduty for 30k+ miles and still have about 30% tread. Must air down to 15-20psi off road. highly recommend.

Pros: Not impressed
Cons:

I got these on my 05 TJ Rubicon from factory. Drove it for about 15 thousand miles, then decided to go for a better tire. I ended up buying the Dick Cepek Mud Country. The difference was amazing. I now think the difference had less to do with the Mud Country and more to do with the less design of the MTR. The MTR never handled that great on road and I thought it was the Jeep. Turned out to be the tire. Probably a cheap bulk tire to slap on the Jeeps from factory. Don't get me wrong, it was ok, but not great. I wouldn't buy another set.

Pros: durable aggressive tread,
Cons: have to spin tire fast to clean out

I drive a Z71 offroad often. I had a set of Wild Country's on it before. the sidewall folded often. haven't had that problem yet with these. I haven't had any punctures. These tires are really tough. I don't like how they don't clean out easy, but overall they're a real good tire.

Pros: Ok in mud and snow
Cons: Trackion on ice and wet pavement sucks

I had these on my Chevy 2500HD diesel, they were ok in light mud and 6 or so inches of snow, heavier mud or deeper snow then just gunked up and i got stuck. also they wore horably, i have a heavier truck so i expected them to but i put 10k on them and they were not and that was with no abouse at all (burnouts).

Pros: Not bad on the street
Cons: Rubbish in the mud and no product support

When I decided to replace my balding Baja Claws, I did a lot of reading and research before selecting a tyre. I chose the MTR based on the fact that I wanted something that was fairly good on pavement as we travel long distances in Australia to get to good trails. It was on one of these long distance travels, that one of my 35x12.5x15 suffered a sidewall failure (tyre had only done 2000 k's)at 100 kph and let me tell you, a 60 series with all the trimmings full of camping gear running a flat 35 at that speed in the dark is no picnic.
Anyway, no product support from Goodyear has left me with no confidence in this product.
On top of all that, when I had wheeled on them they became slicks when exposed to mud and left me bogged up to the chassis (even with front and rear air lockers)
Not a good tyre from a rubbish tyre company.
