MT/R issues, sure when new they were perfect, of course they make some noise but not like a full on big mud tire does. I regulary drive 600 miles on weekends at 65-75 mph. The MT/R did cause me to slow down a bit probally a good thing. With 10,000 miles wear has been very good, balance is an issue but the shop I use will re balance for life also the chains I bought for the stock tires from www.tirechains.com fit. These tires were very cheap I will probally replace with the same as I approach 50% wear. They make the truck perform like it should.
Thanks for the review! I am currently looking at MT/R...but am leaning towards Firestone Destination MT or Cooper Discoverer STT. |

Granted skinney tires do better in the mud but you hate mud.
What?? You must tell this to Interco so they can drop the production on those large size boggers.
I think my 34x9.5x15 swampers were pretty useless in mud while the 35x12.5 does pretty well. The general understanding as far as I've seen in the community has been that in the mud you need wide tires and power to make those spin and clean.
