Goodyear Wrangler MT/R
Goodyear's Wrangler MT/R evolved through research and development geared towards the rock crawling community, which helped Goodyear create one of the toughest all-around tires available on the market. Through patented compounds, the Wrangler MT/R holds up to serious abuse. Its aggressive tread pattern extends down onto the 3-ply sidewalls, providing excellent traction in a variety of terrains while resisting puncture from even the nastiest of razor rocks. Yet the Goodyear Wrangler MT/R radial is still well behaved on the street. It makes perfect sense that Jeep decided to make the Wrangler MT/R standard on the Jeep Rubicon. The Wrangler is available in sizes: LT245/75R16, LT285/75R16, 30x9.5R15C, 31x10.5R15C, 33x12.50R15LT, 32x11.50R15LT, 37x12.50-15 and even 40x13.50-17.
Manufacturers description of this tire:
Goodyear Wrangler MT/R
The state-of-the-art off-road tire includes a 3-ply sidewall and advanced silica compound for excellent durability and puncture resistance. While a new tread pattern provides increased element and lug stiffness and uniform tread wear.
As Tough As The Roads They Drive On.
It takes a tough tyre to master the roads in Asia. In fact, it takes a team of tyres. You see, Goodyear has developed an entire family of Wrangler tyres as unique as the roadways in Asia. Each Goodyear Wrangler is engineered with Goodyear's Trinuum Tyre Technology, offering an advanced combination of features for ultimate performance on smooth and rugged road conditions. So no matter where you drive in Asia, Goodyear has a Wrangler for you.
Built Strong To Last Long Trinuum Tyre Technology gives each Goodyear Wrangler its own unique design. They're all constructed to last long in Asian terrain. In fact, Goodyear Wranglers resist damage from jagged rocks, stones and sharp debris that may leave other tyres useless. You see, most Wranglers feature sturdy steel belts and a wrap-around shoulder design that protect the tread and sidewalls from hazardous cuts and punctures. Other characteristics of Goodyear Wranglers include a continuous center rib, a large uniform footprint, a deep tread, radial construction and additional tread on the outside shoulder. When you add all these features together, you get an entire team of durable Goodyear Wranglers that offer extended wear, long treadlife and strong performance in Asia. That means confidence on the road when riding with the name you can trust - Goodyear with Trinuum Tyre Technology.
Features:
3-ply sidewall construction and advanced silica compounds (Excellent resistance to cuts and tears)
Durawall Puncture Resistance Technology
Advanced mold shape and tread pattern

crap, crap, crap.
That is all that can be said about these tires.
They don't self clean, they don't like mud and you can not rely on them at all.
On top of all this Goodyear are a rubbish tire company with no idea of what customer service or support means.
I would not wish these tires on my worst enemy.

switched from stock goodyear wrangler GS-A to MT/R. Yes, better traction on/off road from the original tires i had on, but not completely satisfied in slippery conditions [snow and/or ice=  ]. generates less noise then I expected on highway use. tested them on the trails couple weeks ago with other Jeeps running on BFG's, and to my hearts content, they put up a fight. Don't know if i will be purchasing these kittens again after they run out though.

Came standard on my 2005 Rubicon and have worn very well. I have 30k on them and they're about 50% worn.
|
|
Cons:
|
Could do better in mud, especially for the price. Great on rocks.
|
|
I don't really have anything to compare them to. I expect I'll try BFG's next time.

I have 38K on a set of 32-12-15 MTRs and they still have fairly deep tread left. The tires are now almost 5 years old and seem to be getting harder. While they were ok on wet pavement before I find I must now drive slower thru the same curves. Probably will buy another set before the coming winter.

I run 37s on a Bronco. Great overall tire. Replaced 33 BFG MTs, Goodyears WAY beter than the BFGs, hands down. MY boat trailer tires make more noise than the MTRs (low miles, I only drive 500/yr.) I wheel in the rocks in AZ, no flats or problems yet....

Haven't run this tire yet but I am getting them mounted next week. All the bad reviews about mud make me wonder why you all bout them haha. The MTR means MAximum Terrain Rocks not mud hahaha. Looking forward to run them soon though

To the last guy... Actually you're wrong. MTR means "Maximum Traction / Reinforced". The MT refers to the tread design and the "R" refers to "Dura-Wall" sidewall. The MTR is the predecessor to the previous generation Goodyear Wrangler MT. Good tire for the most part but not the best for the price.

Pros:

good for rocks and dry trails
|

Cons:

anything wet
|

these came on my 05 rubicon, horrible wet weather traction, locks up on wet pavement under braking, tendency to slide while cornering. Not very good on muddy trails, lots of wheel spin needed to clean the tread. I had them siped, which didn't improve wet weather traction, but did speed up the already fast wear these tires had. I was just not satisfied with this tire, have replaced with the wild country sxt mud terrains, which are hands down a much better tire in every aspect than the mt/r.

In the last 3 months, I've put 5,500 miles on my TJ Unlimited Rubicon. Needless to say, I drive quite a bit. I'm on my second set of MT/R's, and wouldn't go to BFG's just yet. Total milage on the TJ is just a bit over 39,000 miles, and I have never had a problem with the tires. I do recommend rotating the tires every other service. Runs about 5-6K miles. Many tire shops do this for free if you buy the tires from them.
Ii would have liked to see the tires last until 50K miles, but maybe that's asking a bit too much. The rubber compound needs to stay soft for off-road use. So, if you want an amazing tire that has done several feet of snow, Moab, random mountain trails, and Interstate travel time and time again on my LJ, but are willing to sacrifice a bit of tread life for the off-road performance, go for it. A bit pricey, but worth it in the long run.
