Could be worse. Tie to a rope and hang from a tree.

Had on a Toyota HJ47 since new 1980 its never failed, never needed repairs, lost count of how many times pulled the rig out on trees under the diffs mud was so deep. It's been going 30+ years and still runs like new.

I have a 99 z71 with a 9" lift. I'm thinking about purchasing 37/12.50 mud graps on 18 inch rockstars but I don't know if they will rub. If anyone could email me regarding this issue it would be awesome. Justin_Bryant@ymail.com

These tires are super tuff. I put them on my 96 F250 in a 285/75/16. I had them sipped and they were great in the snow and wet roads. Mud is OK but not fantastic. Rocks were pretty good as well but they are still an AT tire primarily designed and used for farm work. (Not by me.) I drove them in winter mountain conditions in Reno NV area for 3 years and they were great running up and down the mountains to the ski resorts. I also pull a 3500lb boat during the summer and the closest lake was 1.5 hours away so they got quite a few towing miles on them as well. They are a good riding tire if you put some weight on them but you need a kidney belt and a mouthpiece if your running empty even airing down from the recommended 80 psi to 42 in the back and 46 in the front. Now here is where I differ from most people about these tires. The wear. I've got 26K on these tires and they are slick. Past the wear indicators. They wore even and I rotated them around every 6k or so give or take 1k. I got these tires because everyone said that the last for ever and you will get 50 or 60k no problem even if you are hard on tires. I will admit that I am not the most gentle on tires but I also do not purposely trash them either. I checked the pressure every second or third fill up and kept them rotated. Unfortunately they go into the same category as EVERY tire that I have had on this truck.. 25-30k no matter the brand. I bought this truck new in 96 and have been the primary driver for it for 16 years. I ran Firestone highway Stock tires on it for the first 2500 and then got Cooper ST that went 26k (wore bad and loud and hard to balance. still had 30% but was miserable to drive on.)Then I went to Mastercraft Courser MT full mud. 26K. They have a nice hum to them but were great in the mud. Then decided to try and get better mileage and went with the Courser AT and got 28k. Not a bad tire but not too good off road. Then I wanted something more aggressive but still needed a DD so I went with the Courser CT and got 27k out of those. A great winter tire by the way but not that great in any kind of deep mud but better than the AT. Now the Toyos have 26k on them and are slick. And yes if you add it up I only have 135k on a 16 year old truck. Would I recommend this tire? Yes. They are bullet proof. Super strong and I never had a flat on them. Did I get 50 or 60k out of them like I was expecting? No. Just my 2 cents worth on this tire. They list for 300.00 a tire now. I will be getting something else this time around.

put them on a 1997 f150 and they are overkill in a 265/75/17 size. they look great and i love them, but if they were 16" i would have much much rather put them on my welding truck (1993 chevy 2500, 6.5 diesel, 1 ton srpings and rear axle, flatbed with 20k gooseneck, winch, and equipment (weighs in almost 8000lbs) but still got 25K out of the cheap "Wild Trac- Radial LTR's" i put on it.

I own a 2005 2500 crew cab 4x4 with duramax. Wore out in 25,000 miles have to warranty replace them. never took them in mud, but slippery in snow and ice.Also noticed the tread would chunk out.I also would not reccomend sipping any tires;think that breaks down the tire life. My first set cost me $997.00 and then you get a mileage credit, so the second set will cost me$650.00.So if i get roughly the same mileage out of them that comes to a wopping $1647.00 dollars for a set of tires for a 50,000 mile tire. THANKS B.F. GOODRICH!

Though I enjoy trying different styles of tires, I will buy these again. They look mean and work hard. They are just sticky enough for the rocks but not too much that you lose all your tread on the highway. These MTZ are on my DD and the light hummmmm on the highway is soothing for me.

These tires look great and was told by tire store that they were great. After about a year they became very bouncy, even when rotated regularly. Had my vehicle checked to make sure, it was fine.


Maybe good for muddin or just for looks, but I bought mine for on road only and they did not last.

This tire is killer! I had a set of worn down MT/R's on my jeep (TJ with 4 inch lift and 33's) and i wasn't a fan at all. No i have 6 inches and 35 inch crushers. Believe it or not, the crushers are quieter. They wear really well so far. 10xxx miles and 85% tread with quite a few trails on them. They're unbeatable in the mud. They kick a$$ in the Utah snow. On the street they handle better than my dads all terrains wet or dry. And they'll stick to any rock like glue. The only other complaint i have is that its a 35 12.5... i wish it were a 35 13.5 but oh well. I only have 10xxx miles so I'm not sure on the lower tread life because thats the true test but if I'm not disappointed i won't ever buy a different tire again!
