JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Default 305-17's MTR's w/Kevlar interesting deflection in action pics

I dunno, maybe most of you have seen exactly how the tire deforms when aired down climbing and under allot of torque? However, my wife caught these shots as I was coming up a face and found the deflection of the tires really interesting





Looking at the LF tire, it's pretty wild how much it changes and bows out under a heavy torque load.

Then right back to normal within a fraction of a second

Hi,

I run 12 psi with them with wheeling, and have never had any issues with beads breaking or anything.

As far as liking the MTR, yes I absolutley love these tires. Been running them about 8 months or so and no issues at all.

Stunning off road, on road and snow
