BFG MT's or Goodyear MT/R's

[Detonate]

I'm having a hell of time getting ahold of MT/R's. The guy I talked to at Goodyear says they are shipping them all to Iraq at the moment.

The guy I talked to at Discount Tire is trying to talk me into BFG MT's, but since I really don't know much about tires, I've just been going off of everyone else's expierences.

MT/R's seem to be the proven solution, so should I hold out for them?

Det,

I had BFG MT's on my Jeep TJ and now have MTR's on my H2. I prefer the MTR's.

They are a bit quieter and seem to do better overall (snow, mud, dirt) than the MT's. I just had the H2 out in the snow,sleet, ice, etc and it behaved perfectly...no issues. On my TJ, the MT's would slip in rain and snow.

Now, you can't really compare the H2 with the TJ but it's the only comparison I can offer.

Have you tried ordering them from Canada? May be a bit more but I think you may be able to find them up there?

[Detonate]

Well the only comparision I have at this point is that Discount Tire offers the MT/R's for $190 per tire and that's mounted and balanced.

While the MT's are $250.

$250 per tire seems steep to me, not to mention I have a feeling that the MT/R's are better. But I just want to make sure that's the overall assesment.

I really don't want to pay more for a lesser tire.

It's hard enough to convince my wife that I need new tires on a 8 month old vehicle as it is.

I haven't tried Canada. The problem I'm having is that most places, while they offer 37" MT/R's, they don't stock them. They just order them as needed. And everyone says they are on back order. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif

I say go with the MT/R...I have scraped,cut,and generally abused mine for over 20k miles...and I wheel on them hard. Never had a problem with them, the sidewalls are awesome and the road noise, performance, and wear all are very reasonable.

From what I have seen on the trail and from talking to owners of the Procomp X-terrains I would go with the MT/R over the procomp products every time. I know 2 owners of the x-terrains personally and they both are switching back to the MT/R (buy 3 get one free is not as good a deal as it seams...)

Good luck finding them, let everybody know where they turn up!

Have you tried Sam's Club. Seems like there are 2 that's right by you. One on I-30 and one on I-20. I know Sam's sells the MT/R's and hell you might get lucky.

Hey detonate,
I have also been searching and searching for MT/R's. I've canceled my order with 4wheelparts.com, They've been on backorder forever. I'm was also told to consider the BFG MT's but I feel the MTR's are superior. I'm just going to hold out and hopefully in a few months there will be a big enough stock around the country to buy some.

That doesn't seem like much tread to me, but I'm not sure how much they come standard with.

And I don't really need or for that matter like these rims. But I'm wondering if I can sell these rims? Or maybe I could use them and swap back and forth between my on road, off road tires?

The guy says there are only about 4,000 miles on the tires, and after I looked at some more of the pictures of New tires on the yellowh2.com site, I tend to agree.

Well these seem to be my options.

Those 4 for $1100 which includes the rims no shipping. + $100ish to mount balance.

5 tires, 4 with 7k miles and 1 with none for $1,000 + shipping + $100ish to mount balance.

5 BFG MT's for $1,500, no shipping, includes mounting and balancing.

I would seriously pass on the tires - I just put mine on today and they have a LOT more tread than the ones in your pics. I can take the same pic with a dime if you want.

As a reference, I paid $900 for my tires on ebay - brand new with wheels. Turns out the wheels wont fit the H2 - the bolt diameter is too narrow for my H2 - they originally came off a Ford F150 - I never knew that there would be a difference?? So will be selling the wheels back on ebay, but still got a GREAT deal anyway.

I have about 15,000 miles on my MTR and they have more tread left on them, than the pictures that Detonate posted.

Really?

To me it looks like the tread is around George's nose on the quarter.

Then I picture a quarter down in the tread on these brand new tires:
http://www.yellowh2.com/Mods/tires/Images/14.jpg
and it seems to me that they'd be close to equal. Maybe I'm wrong. I'd love to see another person take a pic of their MTR's with a quarter in the tread.

Just so you know I put my tread gauge on a quater as close as I could see in your pic and come out at 16/32 maybe a tad more, but not quite 17/32, so out of 20/32 those tires still are fairly new. I'd say $800 tops without the rims, but if you can sell the rims for 400-500 then you still come out ahead....just my .02 cents worth...

[Jigga]

Ok i just placed an order for MTRs with tireterminal.com. Their website listed the tires as "in stock" and they were at one of the best prices i've seen, $214. Hopefully they are really instock and I can finally have a set of MTRs to call my own. I don't have a problem canceling my order if they're actually out of stock.

Tireterminal is a no-go as expected. But the guys that work there are super-nice.

"Hello Mr. Bennett,
We have checked our inventory on these tires but they are not in stock. We are sorry for this inconvenience but it seems to be due to an error made by our website administrator. Normally we get regular weekly delivery on all Goodyear tires but the Goodyear corporate warehouse is backordered over 150 of these tires with no planned production date for more.

We will correct this error immediately to make sure that it doesn't happen again. We will also assume that you wish to cancel the order so we will void it in our system.

Once again we apologize for this inconvenience as it does not happen with us often. Please feel free to ask if you have any other questions.

Sincerely,

Robert

MTR's are good tires but there are certainly good tires out there that compete. Look at PJ dirt grips or swampers, just look around. I have MTR's that have 16K miles that are destroyed from offroading in the desert on the sharp rocks. I'll probably buy PJ dirt grips next time.

[Cranky Steve]

BFG's are great tires, other than Swamper Bias-plys, all I have run for over 20 years, and never had a problem The Mud's are awsome off road for what you guys do. Ultimate is the Swamper bias plys, but they suck on the road. BFG's are a great choice!

I would be interested in picking up five if they can ship them out to Houston, Texas for a decent price. Let me know if this local person would be willing to do it. If so, post his contact info either here or in a PM and I'll give him a holler.

Thanks in Advance...<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>Waiting to hear back from him. As soon as I do I will let you know.

hey paragon.
No I'm still looking.
What place in Jackson are you talking about that can get them??

[PARAGON]

I am getting ahold of him again to see if he is sure he can get them. One of my businesses did some work form him in the past and he owns 5 or 6 local tire stores.

Let me make sure before I post the information on him though.

Paragon -

Still looking for 5x 37's here too if he has enough.

[PARAGON]

Tire guys are all the same, it doesn't matter if they own the joint or just work there. He told me yesterday he could get them.

Caught up with him and he was at a store near where I was this a.m. so I dropped by. "Sorry, they are on national back-order, but these BF Goodrich's are just as good."

Sorry for getting your hopes up.

I have decided to get some more of my money out of the stock tires. I did happen to find the Holy Grail during my quest for the elusive 37" MTR. Anyone need a grail?

MT/R Hounds,

Came across this on eBay today.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2455792963

Good Luck.

BTW - I will say that I am VERY impressed with these tires. Have had them for 6 weeks now. Excellent traction off-road and on snow. Very little to no difference in noise level on the highway.

Not sure if I should take a chance on Ebay or just keep waiting till these tires are available. If they are new, then why are they mounted on an H1?? Also the price is too high to take a chance on them.

I managed to get a hold of four new 37x12.5R17 Goodyear Wrangler MT/R tires in December. I will be mounting them once my wheels are finished.

I'm still looking for a fifth tire.

Anyone want to give up completing a set of four and sell me one new tire?!

BF Goodrich is French [It's a Michelin product].

So, unless the Good Years are $500.00+ for a set more than the BF Goodrich, I'd rather support an American company [though they might be manufactured in China for all we know].

Explorer ProComp [Cooper of Ohio] is better than BF Goodrich too - not just my opinion.
