Goodyear MT/R's - give me your thoughts
For those that are running this tire, give me your review of them. I'm looking at getting a set for my Rubicon and was wondering how they are holding up, perform etc etc.

There are actually quite a few threads on this topic, but they all pretty much say the same thing: these tires are awesome. I have looked through a ton of threads on these tires, since I have a tire purchase in my near future, and the reviews are overwhelmingly positive.

I am completely happy with mine so far.....haven't gotten to find out the mileage I can get out of them yet considering they only have a few thousand on them. Other than that worry I am still impressed with the traction, quiet road noise, what seems to be good road wear, sturdiness during low air pressure running and also the self cleaning.

They are probably the best tire I've used offroad. I've had the stock BFG MT, Baja Radial Claws, Nitto Mud Grapplers, and now MT/R Kevlars. On the highway they do not stay balanced. IMHO I would skip normal balancing and used dynabeads or airsoft bb's to balance, since they will do a much better job of keeping the tire balanced, as they are not fixed weights. Other than bthat they are quiet and smooth riding.

Excellent off road tire that is also quiet in nomal driving. I own 38's and they balanced with about 6oz of weight per tire.
If your tires won't balance, check your rims out to see if you bent one, or if they were cheap/poorly made. If the problem is your tires, they can be warranty replaced for free as a defect.
Tell me when you warranty the tire(s) for defective construction and post some details because I'd like to see what's wrong with them. Mine are as good or better quality than nearly every tire I have owned to date and they are a 38/14.50-17.
