Re:goodyear MT/R's

I have the 315s on my truck. I don't hear any tire noise, even with the windows down. The 315s are load range "D". The 245s are load range "E". The 265s are load range "D".

I had MT/R on my last truck and couldn't wait to dump the POS OE Michelins. The MT/R ride better, handle better, and eliminated the wandering. I wish I had put the MT/Rs on my Sami instead of the the SuperSwampers.

Re:goodyear MT/R's

I ran E load range 235/85 MT/Rs on my 01 and thought they were a very good tire. I got a reasonable life out of them (60K on mostly gravel roads), good handling and ride wasn't any worse than the stockers. They will plug up in very deep snow though, so they'll get you into a bad situation and leave you there :'(

'Course, most normal people don't drive through 4 feet of snow

Re:goodyear MT/R's

I've got 285/75's D range on mine. 3k so far and they seem to be wearing ok. Good deal of gravel here too. They were not loud at all when they were new. They have a little whine to them now, not bad though. I havent had them in snow yet, but they'll move a lot of mud. ;D

Re:goodyear MT/R's

I really like the look and want a set...However, I am worried about the weight of the truck destroying the tires in short time
