    Ya it looks like a mix of the old and new MTRs.

    Yeah they sure do! I like them but I love my MT/R's with Kevlar. Im going to need new tires soon and its a toss up between a new set of MT/Rs and the Nitto Trail Grapplers.

    How are the sidewalls on the trail grapplers? Tough as MTR's? My next set will be a toss up between MTr's or the KM2's like i have now. Like em both.

    the side wall on my Nitto Terra grappler is weak (trust me, mine are cut up everywhere). I'm not sure if its the same on the trail grapplers. I think my next tire will be a Treadwright (spelling?).

    I thought that might be the case. That's what i have to make sure is on the tires i buy is sidewall toughness.
