Now that some of you have put some miles on them, how are they hooking up? Are they still too stiff or has the sidewall loosened up? Anything else good/bad you've noticed? Nothing came up in a search so i figured i'd get some new input. Thanks

i believe goodyear designed the MTR larger sixes around the 17" rim for better handling in the rocks

just what i heard :confused:

ALso...it you have a 37 on a 15 it will have more sidewall and be softer (roll over easier) than the same size tire on a 17.



Wow, that was rocket science...thank you captain obvious:flipoff2:

The 17" have a different load rating than the 15" in the 37 MTR.

Ahhh..I don't think I could be a good judge. I went from a 37 on a 15 to a 40 on a 17. sooooo:flipoff2:
