I ran the 315/75/16 MTR's when i first got my GU they're great tyre and with the factory alloys they didnt scrub in the guards.

I know run the mickey thompson baja MTZ's same size which are awesome and they slightly more aggressive and quiter than the MTR's

just out of interest do they actually measure 34.6inches as they are ment to or are they undersize? i had mtrs previously and thought they where a great tyre. it was a pain in tghe size when i had to replace them as none where available anywhere in the size i wanted so i had to go to coopers :bad-words:

I know the 33's are nowhere near 33 when on a rim on or off the car.
