Talking MT 315 DR's are here

Finally the long awaited 315 MT DR's have shown up. The new tread looks to be a little more "rain friendly" .

damn, they look skinny like the nito 315. Are they 12" across? Too bad, I was hoping for a wide 315. I like the tread design.

My 315 BFG's measure right @ 12" tread width. The section width is about 12.5". These should mount as wide as BFG's .. or very close (on an 11" rim). A LOT better than Nitto's!

what did you pay for them. I have the ZR1 17/11 and I have not put them on the car because I want to run those tires. How long did it take to get them.

THANKS

185.99 from Jegs.. Took 3 weeks to get mine from date of order.
A buddy ordered some this past Friday and was quoted a ship date in 3 weeks. Seems to be the trend as of now.

Who know's how long though once people really start ordering.

Nice pictures. Those will come in quite handy in the future as more ask about how wide they are as compared to x.

I noticed that the MT has a tread wear of 200 , and my Nitto's has a tread wear of 100 so the MT has a harder compound so will the hook better than the Nitto's ? and will the last longer on the street than the Nitto's
