Goodyear Kevlar MTRs SUCK

[Mc2KXJ]

I assumed (after a few beers) that the Kevlar MTRs were supposed to be indestructible after what everyone had told me. They make bullet proof vest out of the stuff so it made sense that they are stronger than steel. :dunno: I wanted to test the sidewalls before using them off road and let me tell you, they are all hype and suck.

My knife slid into the sidewall without any resistance. Not only did I find out that they are crap, but now I need another tire. :flamemad:

Thats an odd place for a blade to break. what the hell were you doing?

 

[RedJeep2.0]

no way did you knife your own tire!!

 

[Mc2KXJ]

I thought it would resist it, they're Kevlar!!!

 

[Wiser]

[Mc2KXJ]

Shut your mouth. Like you haven't tried to test your own tires.

 

[NW-ZJ-SCOTT]

i think my boggers would brake the thickest of blades.

but you can cut my BFG's with a plastic butter nife.

I thought it was funny that in 4wheel&offroad magazine they did a mud tire test and said the new MTRs were basically the worst in the test. Then later on in the Ultimate adventure goodyear is the new big sponsor they put the kevlars on all the rigs and say how awesome they are. SELLOUTS!

 

[Mc2KXJ]

I thought the sidewalls would be tougher. I barely stabbed it in. Maybe my knife was sharper than I thought.

 

[Rockslut]

Wow, weak. Happy 4/1/10

 

[JEEParon]

Im guessing warranty doesnt cover stabbing your own tire? lol

 

[Mc2KXJ]

It should be covered, you aren't supposed to be able to do any damage to them. What is it was a sharp rock. No difference.

 

[Avanteone]

Warranty? What warranty? :laugh3:

 

[Mc2KXJ]

So ACRO doesn't back up what they sell? That's BS, man. Well I'm not gonna pay for it, it isn't my fault.

 

[Avanteone]

Well I'm not gonna pay for it, it isn't my fault.

Write a letter to PABST and make them pay for it.

 

[BenDiesel]

ya they make bullet resistant vests out of Kevlar but not only Kevlar. the good one use ceramic plates as well. i mean all kevlar is, is spun and woven plastic. you really think that will hold up? lol

 

[r33pwrd]

I'll be over in a few to see this in person

 

[Mc2KXJ]

Bring some duct tape so I can fix the hole.
