I ran the mtr kevlar tires in a 37, i now run 37" trail grappler. Hands down go with the nittos. The mtr's are loud, ride like shit, can be hard to balance and are horrible off road. Go with the nittos. I will never go back!!

I've ran 37 KM2, 37 MTR and now 37 Nitto T/G.

Mtr is a great tire, no complaints but after running trail Grappler, never going back. they ride amazing! and hook up well. Just need to break in the sidewall. run some easy trails with like 5 psi and they're ready!

if you ever jump to 40s. they kick ass, a friend of mine i wheel with has 40 trail grappers, nice!

I run nitto trail graps and am on my second set. I had considered the MTR's because they are one of the lightest 37 you'll find. So to some, the slight differences in performance might be worth doing for the weight savings.

Hey, I wanted to thank everyone for commenting.

I had actually made my decision on the MTRs when I mounted them on my Black Rhino wheels (why I couldn't measure the Grapplers with wheels mounted) but wanted to share my side-to-side pics with Nittos (and my Duratracs) since I had them. I thought I'd post 'em because it seemed the two most common 37" tires people decide between are Trail Grapplers and MTRs; i.e.: this forum topic "https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/jk-t...w-37s-319196/#". Have to admit though, the Nitto comments kinda make me want to run them after the MTRs run out.

I'm not sure but I'm beginning to think my Jeep 'project' has the potential to get expensive
