I'm liking the new design and upgrades GY has made.

Don't know if it's worth a damn but it sure looks good.

I like it.

I'm not too hot on that tread design... looks directional. But the use of Kevlar is interesting. Might make the sidewalls far more resistent to cuts and punctures. If nothing else, you could use these Kevlar tires as a bullet proof shield if you ever got caught in a shootout! :D

I had the Goodyear MT/Rs on my H3. It is my favorite tire for offroad use and I'm thiking about that new Baja over the Toyo. The old Mt/Rs tires were fantastic offroad and in the snow (second to none IMHO), but they were VERY NOISY on the highway - lots of tire whine, so you have to crank the stereo way up. Wear wasn't that bad with them.
