Goodyear Wrangler MT/R Reviews

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.

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.

I have a set on my Jeep Rubicon, second set actually. Put a lot of miles on the first set and wore them down until they didn't perform too well in the mud anymore. But I liked them well enough to buy another set. In my opinion this is a very good tire. On the street it does great, decent traction, low noise. Offroad they do great in the mountain area where I go wheeling. I can say that they don't hold up too well to a railroad spike (picture attached). Bummer. No patching that hole.

Very decent tire life for an MT/R. Excellent in mud and very good in snow. Never gotten a flat with heavy offroad use and driving a 80km logging road twice per week. Strongly recommended tire. Wouldn't buy anything else for this price range.

I put a set of 285/75/16`s on my rig, and I was not impressed with the overall performance of these tires. Mild Utah mud filled these tires quickly, turning them into slicks that failed to clear out until I was back on the highway. Fairly Good traction on rocks, but I already have a deep slice on the sidewall of one. Lateral traction in soft terrain was also a bit weak. I am going to try them in the snow this weekend. They are quiet on the road, and do look nice though!

I have these tires (35x12.50x15)currently on my 99 wrangler TJ. this is my third brand of tires i have used and the worst. They work fine on dry pavement but loose too much traction when wet, I have punctured the sidewalls on three of them on the rocks, and have had to winch out of holes in the mud that i have gone through with 31 inch all terrains. I have had better performing tires at a third of the price.

I use these tires on my Sahara TJ which I use daily as much as off-road use. In street they work great with dry pavement, got some scares whit rain. On rock, the tires perform great but they show a lot of scratches and wear. Great on Mud or wooded trail.
