Hmm, I guess I'll be one of the first here to try it.

I don't know anything about this tire. sorry about that. I do have a question though. How did you like you Yokohamas? I plan on getting them as my next tire and would like input from a fellow Trooper owner.

Thanks

Yokos Geolander AT+II. They are like sport tires
on pavement and they handle nicely the dirt stuff.
And they are very strong.

That new firestone tire specs seem very close to the Bridgestone Dueler MT so I bet it's a Rebadged Dueler MT. Just a guess.

I would like to think that the newer tire has more technologies built into it than this older M/T tire.

This is not a re-badged Bridgestone MT, this has a full 3-ply poly body, 2 steel belts and a complete nylon cap, in addition to a rim protector ridge. The carcass is built much stronger than the Dueler MT.
They do offer this tire with a different tread patter under the Dayton name brand.

Anyone with actual first/second hand experience?

Just checking in. Did you get these tires and if so how do you like them? Please keep us informed, some (like me) will be purchasing tires in the future and need all the info we can get.

Thanks
