I have the MT/Rs and am slightly disappointed in them. First, off the rack all five of mine can't be balanced at speeds between 70mph - 80mph. I even have weights on the outsides of the wheels because I told them to do what it takes to get them balanced for our long trip.

They don't clean off sticky mud very well either. I would rate them only slightly better that the stock ATs in the mud with exception to a mud that is more watery. I also was a little disappointed in them on the rock in Moab. A couple of others were running the BFGs as well as other tires and they were simply getting better grip on the rock than I was on the same obstacles. The tires didn't fail me in any way, they were just easier to spin and turn over where others were gripping better and I was down at lower PSI than they were.

There's no doubt that the MT/Rs are good tires and are probably better on other vehicles but I don't think they are the BEST match for the H2 and I will be looking for a different tire when the time comes.
