I have the new version of the MT/R's with Kevlar. Im on my second set and about to order my third in a few months. My tires are excelent in the ice and snow but I did a little siping/groving to them since the tread is getting low. I live in Upstate NY and we get hammered with snow.

Good to know.... What kind of life are you getting out of them??
Well the set I have now I had installed in September 2010 the day before I went to Rausch Creek. They have about 25% tread left and about 25,000 miles on them. I know thats not a lot of miles for a set of tires but my front end alignment has been jacked up for quite some time now and the tires are cupping on the outside. Im in need of JBA UCA's. The inner lugs actuall have about 40% tread. Im going through the entire front end next month and will be installing new upper and lower UCA's, along with the passenger side inner and outer tire rod. Just replace the drivers side inner and outer last week cause it was shot.

Only piece of advice I can give is as great as my MT's are off road and aired down I would give some of that back for a quiter tire I think.
Well my exhaust is loud enough where I can't really hear the road noise unless I'm crusing at like 30.Originally Posted by Sal-XK

They vibrate a lot as well LOL it will change the ride of the XK though just some FYI. for all around off road traction they can't be beat they bite real hard.
