How many miles do you have on them and how much do you have left.

The MTR/Ks should have great tread life, due to the low void tread pattern on the crown.

They will probably outlast other popular MT tires like the KM2s.

I am curious about this as well. I wonder how the tire rotation works. I know that they must be mounted one way out, but what about directional tread? Are they able to go both ways or what?

If they can be rotated normally, I might get a set of these instead of KM2.

I've got nearly 5K on mine and the tires on the ground look just like the spare, no noticable wear.

As for rotating them; just put the correct side facing out and rotate them just like any other non-directional tire.
