Anyone run the Goodyear MT's on their Jeep?

I found a set of Goodyear MT retreads from community tire for a damn good price. Anyone run the goodyear MT's on hummer wheels on a Jeep? Anyone got any feedback on these? Wondering how the tire will do rock crawling.

Very stiff sidewall, rated at something like 3500lbs, flat spot, mine say "Military use only, not DOT approved" on the side. I put mine on my 3500 crew cab tow rig.

dont get the retreads, from what my guys have said they are shat!! (retread peeling off at 50mph ect.) that and they actualy cost the Gov. more than the new ones:eek:
If you do get them as trail or beater tires make sure you hand inspect them as the run flat ring will tear the insides up sometimes and they will just retread them anyway and send them back to the military for use

Daniel has got 90% or better bias tires for $75 a peice. I think I'd do something like that before I went retread. I've heard pros and cons for retreads, but I still think I'd stick with new ones, and for $75 a hit, I could go for a while. I'll prb be using them on my Blazer as DD tires. Maybe not the best or longest lasting, but neither are my swampers.

On the road they're louder than my TSLs, and don't work worth a shit. A buddy had them on his rig for a few months and he had nothing good to say about them.
