    How good are the Goodyear MT/R kevlar on and off road, also most important thing is the mileage, I want to get my moneys worth out of these tires. This might be the next tire Im going with in 33x12.50r15. Read some of the reports on these tires on different tacoma websites and all positive feed back.

    I have these tires on my Jeep wrangler. Absolute perfect tire great off-road and isn't that loud on road virtually no wearing after a year and a half gas mileage does suffer a little but definately worth it.

    Lrgrnr on here is running them and loves them...no experience with em personally but they are a solid tire it seems and have been proven on many o' terrain...with any aggressive tire, the street part is an issue with wearing as its usually a softer rubber...so take that for what its worth :)

    Great tire. Looks outstanding wears great little noisy and MPG suffers a little but if you get these tires you will absolutely love them. Great looks decent price and wears like an all terrain.

    If, as you wrote, "the most important thing is the mileage"

    First did you mean gas mileage or long wearing mileage?

    For gas mileage you're going to want a "P" rather than "LT" tire and one with less aggressive tread -- maybe Nitto terra grapplers?

    For wear, still too early to say, but I'm sure as heck not getting 50,000 miles on my MTR Kevlars, based on the amount of wear in the first 9000 miles. Again, less aggressive tread if mileage is your most important criterion.

    Wow, someone has anger issues...

    Back off the Moose, they guy was trying to clarify your question and provide you with his experience, which you asked for.

    keep it up, you'll do well here at TW!

    By the way, the MT/R is a mud terrain, not an all terrain...dumbass

    Interco Boggers is the tires you want. Damn near dont wear... and they are super quite. Aggressive tread too. But the mtr/kevlar are nice. Friend has them on his jeep. He loves them.
