First mudding with Bridgestone Dueler REVOS
So I was driving home to KC from central Kansas and I pass this "historical marker" well I didn't feel like hanging out with my girlfriend at home so I went back to check it out. It turned out to be a autotour rotue of where the Santa Fe trail crossed Kansas so I started following it. Gravel roads with side road of just dirt. Until the tour signs take you on the dirt only road. Well in Kansas City I have no unpaved road so when I continued and found 4wheel drive was NEEDED it was as if 47 christmas monkeys feathered me with blissful entertainment. The road pulled me quite a bet so I had a job not to slide into the ditch. Keep in mind I am in flash flood warning and we had rain for 2 days (heavy)
anyhow the Brigde Revo's are great hiway and mild offroad, but for the mud I now understand why a MTR is made. Don't get me wrong the Revos were predictable they did clean out fine in the crud, but I think my stopping distance was horrible check the pic.
I wanted to stop for the sign, but had to back up quite a bit, I was going 30-35

I thought .. MTR = Mud Terrian Radials
I can't do a MTR because I drive hiway 80%, why did yours not do good in mud?

MT/R is actually Maximum Traction / Reinforced. They aren't great in the mud from what I hear.

The MTRs are far better than an AT but fall short of a true Mud Tire, they don't clean very well. I'm not saying they're a bad tire but I just wanted to clarify that they not an MT.

goodyear mtrs work better in the mud then any A/T but it is the worst mud tire compared to other options in its category
however its the best rock tire in its category too.
