    You can get Toyo MT's with kevlar in them (I have them) and they are literally bullet proof. Got 2 good size screws stuck in mine and pulled them out today, not a leak at all. Nittos I bet would leak because they don't have kevlar and because the rubber is much softer.

    They use them in the military. I got a set through some connections a little bit extra money. They don't advertise it obviously but its just a thin layer, nothing like a bullet proof vest

    Guess when the time comes I'm gonna have to talk to a few military friends...

    Although Toyo already makes the sidewalls on those tires tough as hell.

    Toyo if those are your only 2 choices. I run the Goodyear MTR's Best off road tire I have run. The street performance who cares that's not how I choose my tires.
