Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Goodyear Kevlar Tires?

Anyone have them? What do you think?

I have AT tires on my F150 and so far I like them. They were on it when I bought it last Dec.

Thank you.

OEM spec on my truck. Had them since Oct/Nov and 4500 miles. Running them at 33psi - zero issues. Pretty quiet tire actually. I'm generally not a Goodyear person.

All I know about them is the OP photo. I don't see any siping. They might be great mud tires but I'd question their traction on slick roads.

They suck. Had some OEM on a 2017 f250. Got 26,000 miles out of them.

The tire you posted is a Goodyear MT/R and they are a badass off-road tire that is dog$hit for just about anything but off-road use.

That picture is a web image. I'm not sure how many treads are available.

Toomuch tire for cornfields

These are the tires that came from the factory on my 2020 Ford F 250. They are at 45,000+ miles with lots of tread life left. They will easily see 60,000+ Tire has had even wear with proper rotation. The ride quality is good and they have been more than adequate in snow here in SE MI. I would replace these with the same tire but want to go up in size, and these do not come any bigger (taller) for an 18" wheel.

I have Kevlar tires on my Tacoma TRD Off Road 4x4 and so far have over 30k miles with no issues.

Ran the Goodyear MTR on a lifted Jeep GC.

Some noise, last about 35k on a daily driver

Larger footprint of bigger tires ( lifted ) was not horrible but w V8 theyd spin on pavement when the rain started.

My view.....expensive. If you dont wheel, buy an AT.

I've yet to find a good place to get stuck.

You aint lookin very hard then.

If shorty and I build a wheeler itll wear MTRs. Like that tire. But Im done wearing out aggressive tires on daily drivers.

Absolute schitt! I had a set and lost three to rock cuts inside of 18 months. Load range E and the rocks ripped right through the kevlar belts. Unrepairable as they ripped a 1/4” hole into them. The equivalent steel belted radials I had before and after on the exact same roads and same truck never have had an issue. After ruining the third, I pulled them off and gave them to another sucker who was having the exact same issues.

You’ve got to apologize for being white before you can buy Goodyears. Their corporate training slides were posted all over the web a year or two ago.

Put them on a truck years ago and we had a blizzard roll in not long after. Driving around during the storm and I could not get stuck. The only downside is that they get really loud as they wear. The big lugs slap the pavement. The funny thing is when I bought them they were just released and I called GY and asked if they were directional and the guy I talked to said no. Well now I see that they truly are directional. Factory idiot.

Toyo MT/R or Michelins and don’t look back.

Aramid (similar to Kevlar) belted tires seemed to be the rage years ago. It simply takes the place of steel belts in tire construction. They were a bit lighter weight.

All other comparisons of rubber compound, tread design, etc. still need to be considered based on your needs.
