MT/R Kevlar's

[tjkj2002]

Well with 1500 miles on my MT/R Kevlars now just wanted to state they are worth the money.They are very grippy on the street,no real noise unless your turning,great wet weather traction.No winter driving with them yet.Offroad they are amazing,aired down to 12psi and they grip like super glue,will be trying 10psi next trip.Scraped,rubbed,impacted the sidewall's on many sharp rocks and no cuts or abrasions on the sidewalls at all.


If you liked the old sytle MT/R's(non-OEM Rbicon takeoffs) you will be very impressed with the new MT/R Kevlars as they out perform the old style MT/R's by a big margin.

I have 10,000 miles on mine and I have to agree with you they are definitely worth the money, I couldn't be happier.

Excellent tires!
On our second set.
Next time around we'll be going up in size to 265-75-16's

They handle weight quite well too I assume, due to the fact that some of the new M1151's come equipped with them. Like tjkj said, they handle phenomenally, even with the 12,000 lbs. of armor riding on them. tjkj knows what I'm talking about

Yes, but those are not the same as what we are using.
Those are MIL Spec. 37X12.5R16.5 M/T R's @ $687.00 each.
Also the old style tread pattern.

Yep those MT's suck big time,and the military get's them for $200 each in that size.The older bias ply 36x12.50x16.5 MT were much better then the 37" radial MT's they now use.
