Getting the Wheeling Fever
I am finishing up my lift install and have a set of 33x12.50x15 on some black rockcrawler wheels. I have heard alot of good things about the goodyear mtr's for both offroad and on the road. I think the MTR's are the way to go for both on and offroad driving. Although, when I had my CJ7 I had superswamper sx's and I dont think there is a better tire for strickly offroad use or very minimal onroad use. They gave excellent traction formed well to rocks and have awsome sidewall protection.

They Really are and they are tuff, Very Functional tire for how aggressive they really are, I think My next set is going to be either MT/R's or Mickey Thompson MTZ's, the MTR's hands down runs quieter.

Body Damage is Cool
BFG AT's were good off-road, okay in the mud, good on-road particularly in the snow. The wear on them was very good. A great A/T for light trucks.

Swamper TSL's were great off-road in the mud or on loose trail, but less than stellar on the rocks. Horrendous on road in wet weather. Good in powder snow but bad on hard pack. Performance improved on-road in the wet, and off-road in the rocks after grooving and siping. But still not great. Flex off-road was poor unless aired down to or below 8 psi. (15x8 rims) I'm figuring a heavier vehicle is needed for improvement on that. the wear on these was fast.

TrXus MT's are great on road for being so aggressive. Slightly louder than BFG AT's and way quieter than TSL's. Very good in the snow and rain on road for a mud tire. Good on the rocks off-road and good on the trail. Obviously not as good as tsl's in the mud. but good enough to be on my second set. The wear on these has been good.


when looking for a container to hold drained brake fluid, find a container that is different from the beverage you are currently consuming.
