This will not be an issue. Fortunately, these tires have spent a lot of time in a closed garage. They are good noisy tires after some wear.Stuka wrote:Be aware that some tire shops may not mount them depending on their date code.
But they were good tires for their day.
The new Kevlar MTR's are semi-directional; the all terrain section of the tread must be mounted toward the outside.HeavyMetalThunder_81 wrote:I remember when the Goodyear MTRs were directional and I remember when that tread design came out
Had a set of directionals on the Cherokee for a couple years, got them used. I traded my spare Lock-Right locker for them and ran 'em until they were slicks

Everything wears down fast here. The asphalt literally melts your tires as you drivefulsizjeep wrote:The BFG MTs are soft and wear down faster than any of the older Goodyear MTRs. Probably makes them OK for trail use. I like the ATs for wear but not so much for the MTs.
Must be why BFG's ALWAYS fit.Stuka wrote:BFG's are also WAY under sized. A friend just replaced his 37" BFT KM2's for a set of Maxxis tires. The BFG's only measured 35.6" tall. The Maxxis were 36.6" tall. I have noticed the same thing with 33's. Almost always an inch or so smaller than other tires of the same size.
