KM2's vs MTR Kevlar
- Thread starter 3MAX
- Start date
I bought 5 of the mtrs in 35x12.5 r15 two years ago. I only drove 6 months on them. (my blazer has been off the road for a year) I only have 3 left that hold air and 1 of those three had to be replaced for a sidewall bulge / blowout with only about 300 miles on it. The tread wear is way quicker than my old tsls.

Ok you changed my mind.
So is it correct that the old MTR'S are not the same? I ask because I bought a set with my '72 K5. They seem great and I had a couple of comments on the fact that I had first series.
So when they are done, don't buy another set?
On the flip side, I heard from my local tire shop, that they had seen BFG 's get out of round recently. They said it was 3 in one set. But this thread says opposite.

They switched tread design and rubber a few years back. I wish they hadn't the old style mtr's were a really good tire.
As shitty and as my old bias tsls were on the road, I trusted them to hold air and get me from here to there. I definitely can't say the same about the mtrs. I won't be buying another set. @ktmoutfront has had his longer and maybe he will chime in.
I hear good things about the older style mtrs as tires, but supposedly the new ones have superior traction off road in any environment.
