New Goodyear "Wrangler" tire

So this new Goodyear tire being shown on the 2021 Broncos looks alot like the tread pattern of a BFG KM3 to me. I love that tread design. I cannot find these tires anywhere. Rumor has it the word "Wrangler" is being removed which may affect releasing it. If there are any tire vendors on here that can shed some light that would be cool.

That is a cool tread pattern. Nicely siped as well

I looked since I really like the look of those. I read somewhere that “Wrangler” would be on the inside when supplied with the Bronco.

Wouldn’t really bother me too much since I had a set of Wranglers on my Sierra way back.

I've had horrible luck with the last 3 sets of Goodyear tires we've owned. The last 2 Audi's we bought had Goodyear tires from the factory. The treadwear was horrible on those cars until we replaced them with Michelins. We also had 3 tires we had to replace because of bubbles in the sidewall on the A4. We live in Texas and potholes are virtually non-existent here compared other states so 3 tires with bubbled sidewalls obviously there is a quality issue there. I just replaced the tires on the S5 we bought and it only had 25k miles on it because the tread was nearly gone already. We drive our cars hard but not to the point of replacing them at 25k miles, that's a joke. We also used to run the Goodyear Marathon tires on our car haulers/boat trailer. They are made in China now and don't last either. I know this is a totally different tire but from my experience BFG, Michelin, and Maxxis make a much better product.

These will be the factory tire on the TRX as well (although a different size). Goodyear calls these a M/T tire. For Goodyear that does not mean mud terrain it means "maximum traction". Apparently the delay in release is due to getting the 3-Peak snow certification. They are still in testing.

Gotcha, thanks. I really do like the tread pattern. I wonder what the sidewall and ply and load rating will be on these.

The Bronco version is a load range "C".

No thanks, I’m done with Goodyear. I’ve had noise issues with a set of Eagle F1s, vibration issues with a set of Wrangler All Terrain Adventures, and now their politically correct BS they were pulling earlier this year.

My truck will not likely see anything other than BFGs.

The way I have always seen Goodyear performance tires is like this. On paper specs are great and they normally do perform very good. But wear, noise and performance as they get some miles on them, just decreases. I would be curious to see how these do. Maybe they have something good?

Duratracs get a little loud when they get some mileage on them. But even at half tread they are better in rain and snow than my KO2s with 8k miles.
