At first, I was thrown off by the cost, but I went for it anyway because my friend swore by this tire, and I’m glad I did because this is the best tire I’ve ever used for my GMC Yukon.” William B. says: “I hate spending too much money on tires because I’m not that spirited of a driver anyway, but I’ve been struggling to find a tire that can handle the beaten roads around where I live, and a friend recommended that I try the Wrangler MTR. It starts at around $199!

Tassie is only a small state and, so far, we have only put around 3000km on the MT/Rs, but there’s plenty more off-road work ahead for these muddies. When lowering tyre pressures for soft sand driving, the MT/Rs didn’t ‘bag-out’ too much in the sidewalls, even at 13psi when recovering one of the other vehicles on our Tassie adventure. As well as traction ridges that see the tread pattern continue over to the sidewall, the MT/R has a Kevlar reinforced sidewall construction, which proved impervious to damage despite my sometime wayward off-road driving that saw me occasionally brush up against rocks and other obstacles. They also copped a pounding on some of the narrower tracks we encountered, with tree roots and rocks attacking the sidewalls at every opportunity but inflicting no visible damage – not even a scratch. The MT/Rs did not disappoint, offering good traction no matter the surface. Just look at the overall tread pattern and it’s quite clear to see what the Goodyear engineers have tried to achieve with this asymmetric design: a combination of off-road grip and on-road performance. And while the outer half of the tread pattern is also quite chunky, there’s an obvious longitudinal channel and a lot more siping in the tread blocks, clearly aimed at maximising water dispersion when driving on wet roads. There are few sipes on the inside tread blocks, which are chunky items spaced far apart, no doubt aimed at gaining purchase in slippery off-road conditions, as well as quickly clearing away mud. The next day I got to sample the MT/Rs on wet bitumen and gravel roads, and Goodyear has obviously gone to great lengths to ensure they perform well in such conditions with their unusual asymmetric tread pattern. Sure, muddies generally get louder with age when the edges of the tread blocks start to flare, but the MT/Rs were too new exhibit this type of wear. This leisurely cruise on the highway, with a freeway section thrown in, didn’t yield much information when it comes to on-road grip, steering and braking, but it did highlight the noise generated by the MT/Rs which, while not excessive, seemed more noticeable than some other new muddies we’ve tested before. My first taste of the MT/Rs was on dry roads, firstly commuting through Melbourne and then, once off the Spirit of Tasmania I, on the highway from Devonport down to Longford.
