OK, so I saw the back of a PU at a stoplight today..
He was runnin the new Goodyear MTR's.

There is no way in hell I am putting those things on my Jeep.
It looked like a MT Claw that got mounted wrong on the right side.

Sorry Goodyear... They s/b directional. I am not gonna trust that tire
to pull me in a straight line.

To give some props.. The Dura Trac looks like a sweet @$$ A/T!

 

Your loss. They aren't directional, they don't pull, they're quiet on the road, sticky as hell on the rocks and now.... they're officially Moab tested and approved!

 

The main issue I have with Goodyear is price.

 

Yeah, you can supposedly run them either direction...but it would look kinda dumb I think to run them "backwards", I mean they do LOOK like a directional tire...doesn't matter, I think they look dumb no matter what direction you run em...just my $.02

 

Still don't like the new MTR. If I had the $$$$ I would have a set of Nitto Mud Grapplers on mine.

 

I guess I am just disappointed, I was hoping for a new king.

They may be ok, but I just can't get over the fact of having one side runnin'
a different direction.

 

I'm guessing the MT/R will perform great, but I think they do look a bit odd. I do like the looks of the Dura Tracs though. Unfortunately due to the budget I just sprang for the stock BFG M/Ts. $470 for five tires (and I had to pay tax to) including the rebate that ends today (ordered from Discount Tire Direct of course).
