I don't remember any pestering...
The KRT Bs (sticky compound and Krawler tread) are defiantly better.
In the rocks they grip ok, I'm hoping with some well thought out cutting there will be more biting edges. the solid center tread is nice on the street but doesn't help in the rocks. However there is no cutting side walls and the beads stay attached at 8 psi... for me at least.
I've been running them in the street for about 2 years (38k miles ish) and they are still about 50% tread, I think they were 75% when I got them.
No good in snow with the light jeep.

I wish my MTRs had that kind of wear. I love the tire but I dont think I can justify buying it again because of the life expectancy.

Thanks for the offer. I'm having acl replacement on the 4th so ill be sofa surfing for a few weeks. But once I'm back up and running I'd be down to take a trip up to TnT for a cutting session.
Alasha, ya I ran a set of 37 MTRKs for the winter expecting more snow... It was kinda tragic knowing that the tires were being run on the street and not the dirt and rocks.
I'm thinking ill always have to have a set of street tires and a set of offroad tires for the heep, the really good offroad tires are wasted on daily driving. I'm going to give the Yokohama A/T-Ss a really good look and testing to see how they hold up to on & off road driving. As soon as they become readily available agin in 37s.
