Ordered some 35X12.50X15's MTR's today and they shipped out this afternoon!

Seems that 35's in 15" are getting harder to find.

I have the MTZs and they are a horrible tire. They do not wear evenly at all and have to get my tires balanced often and then rebalanced. Sometimes it took 3 times. I've talked to many jeep shops in the area and they all say they are crap tires. I've also had them trued twice. For on road performance I strongly urge you not to make my mistake. I am staying away from the whole Mickey Thompson line. Hope it helps.

this is the first time i have ever heard anything negative about these tires

anywho, the KM2's are awesome on the road, do not sound like a MT at ALL, they have been good to me in the mud, will be testing them on the rocks next week. I think my next set im gonna try out the MTR w/ Kevlars and definatley be getting 37's, just to switch it up, but i think its gonna be a WHILE before these are worn enough to justify new meats, and i may end up sticking with the KM2s because i absolutely love them

actually looks like ill be sticking with the KM2's when i move to 37s because it doesnt appear that you can get a 37" MTR w/ K for a 16" rim, not many of them out there

KM2s all the way - love them
I've had them on over a year now. I live in Ohio and weather changes from day to day. They were great in the snow, rain or mud.
