Pros: Superior traction in Mud, rocks, and over logs. Great looking.
better gas mileage.
Cons: Pain to clean. Price. Price. Highway cornering alittle weak(to be expected with mud terrain).
The Bottom Line: I would buy again. These are by far the best off road on road tire.

| xtremski74's Full Review: Goodyear Wrangler MT Truck/SUV Tire |
I have had this tire on my truck for about a month now. It has low noise levels inside my truck but roars down the road. Makes heads turn. I drive and extended cab 2000 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. I went with the 285/75/16 instead of the 265's. I have had it in some seriously deep mud and performed awesomely. Most of the way through I used 2wd then the tires began to spin. I thought I was in trouble again because this is the same spot the BFGoodwrench Mud terrains cost me $400.00 dollars for a tow out. I pushed the 4wd button and hit the gas and very much to my surprise these tires grabbed like they were on dry pavement. I am now alot more confident in these tires so I decided to take them up some real rocky terrain to my hunting stand. They climbed the mountain like it was a flat field. Over the rocks , brush, logs, and yes even my fathers deer stand! Yeah he wasn't happy. I have to say the side walls held really well no punctures from the metal on his stand. On the Highway I got about 2 miles per gallon more then my Cooper Discovery M/T tires and about even with the BFG's. I love it but hate the price! Local Goodyear garage sold them to me mounted balanced and they got rid of the old ones for a total of $936.00 . I love them and would by again.
