Tires are GREAT I run them on my 09 550 Grizzly, you can feel the grip on these tires when you throttle it, run very smooth over rough terrain and even better on smooth terrain. Tires are alot bigger than photo it raised my Grizz up 2 inches from the stock 12. Cant wait to run it in the marshy areas of my ranch in Texas for Hog hunting this fall.

I replaced my green diamond icelanders with these tires and at first I really liked them. I still do, however they are wearing very quickly. I have them on a jeep liberty with many many mods and even though it is fairly light, they are wearing fast. Maybe 12K on them and they may have 1/2 tread.


I do have a Detroit locker so that doesn't help much. They are pretty good in the mud, crap in the sand.

I have a set of 33 X 12.50 X 15s on my 1999 Wrangler TJ. When I bought the Jeep used in 2006 it already had a set of 5 of these tires on it. 4 were wore out (the spare was still new). Since the spare was new I decided to purchase these again so all tires would match. When I removed the original tires the center of the tires was worn more than the edges. I figured this was due to the original owner running too high air pressure in the tires. I did the chalk test to determine what air pressure to run and came up with 20 PSI. It is now 2009 and I have only put approximately 18000 miles on the Jeep and the tires are more than half wore out, and again they are wearing in the centers (meaning too high air pressure). Most of this driving has been on the street, but I have also wheeled in Florida red clay and a little sand. When I purchased these tires, I mail ordered them and installed them myself. When balancing them, two of them balanced out with less than an ounce of weight each. The other two took 6.5 and 7 ounces. I have spun the tires on the wheels and changed the tires to different wheels and the problem is the tires. Due to this I have a slight shimmy at 40 MPH and above 60 MPH all of the time. I will never mail order any tires again (this is the second time I mail ordered and had similar problems both times). Had I purchased the tires locally, I would have had the two replaced. As I said earlier, I have wheeled these tires a little. During one outing, a small stick went through the sidewall of my right front tire leaving about a ½ inch hole. I was able to plug the hole and the tire holds air well. I was glad all of my tires matched so I could make this tire the spare and put my spare on the front. The very next wheeling trip (and the last one I have been on) another small stick (about ¾ inch diameter) went through my left rear tire. This one ripped a 6 inch long hole in the tire. I was flabbergasted at how such a small weak stick could do this damage to the tire. Other than these problems, these tires ride very well on the street and are very capable off road (I have only been stuck once and it was because I was high centered in ruts in the mud). I could not buy these tires again. In fact I have not been wheeling (my favorite past time!) in over 1 ½ years because I have been too afraid of having another tire problem.

I wanted the MT KL71 for my Jeep but got the AT instead. It performs much better than I ever expected off road. Never got stuck even in the nastiest mud. Grips great on rocks. The street performance goes without saying. A little squirrly on wet roads. I've had them for about 10,000 miles and the tread is lasting well. I will probably have them for another 10,000. These tires are meaner than they look.

We own a 2001 Tundra pickup. We replaced the original tires at 41,000 miles with the Goodyear Fortera HL based on ConsumerReports' recommendations. Performance is better than the original tires, but it came at a price. Tires were warranted for 60,000 miles. We got just under 29,000 miles before reach wear marks.

285/70/17 on a 2002 1500 Z71, 50% of driving is done on the highway while the other 50 is done through the woods, farm trails, and michigan back roads. I have put a hard 20000 miles on these tires in 5 months with little complaints. Tires still have about 65+ % life left. Only I have been stuck I had the diff hung up. Only complaint: Took the tires for a test when I first got them and tore up some lugs but warranty replaced the tire.


If your getting bad life fix your truck, if your getting stuck you need a MT or driving lessons.

i have used these tires for years,original MT's,MTR's and now the MTR-K's. (Kevlar)the new tread design is a little quieter,braking is great and the side walls are aggresive enough with the Kevlar, to air way down. the bead is new and protects the rim well. I run 33-12-15's on the teflon coated rims by American racing ATX series. so far so good....jeep8585

Tires look great and for the most part perform well. They produce alot of road noise. Have rotated them every 5,000 miles and they are wearing a bit uneven. Cupping, but I have 30,000 miles on them.

I have this tire on my 89 Jeep Wrangler. Its a pretty smooth riding tire and on the trial it hooks up pretty good. i brought it through mud and sand and they do good for AT's. As long as u dont go through really thick mud u wont get stuck easy...unless u cant drive through mud
