Tires

I need your help on deciding which tire to go with, I'm just looking for feature reference.

Driven both. Goodyear's quieter, stickier and I think better in the mud. Both handle about the same on the road, which is pretty good. I personally like the Goodyear better.

The sidewalls on the goodyears are going to hold up a whole lot better if you go in the rocks.

Funny, I didn't mention it, but I lost two KM2's to sidewall punctures. I thought I'd try some Kevlar for a change. Haven't really had the chance to really give'em a real shake down in the rocks yet. They did perform very well in Moab.

I'm thinking the Goodyear. The KM2's lack of siping is disappointing.

The MTZ is not an option, but I'm very happy with mine so far. 37" tires are in my future. It will be between the MTR's and the MTZ's.
