35" Geolander MTs or Wrangler MT/Rs

Already had the Geolanders, but was wondering what everyone thought about the Wrangler MT/Rs. They are gonna cost me about $35 more per tire, so I want to make sure that they are worth $140 more.

Brandon, I've got a set of 35s on my truck that I've run for over 20k. I got them from klaibs27 when he went up to 38s and at that time they had between 15-19k and alot of that time was spent spinning on tire eating rocks at the Badlands in Attica, IN. As of right now I've got still a good 3/8" worth of tread yet. They have not significantly worn since I've had them. I'm expecting to hit about 50-60k out of them. They used to be quiet on the road until I had to make a 16hr trip with bad alignment so they got checkered bad enough they might not come out of it, but that was my fault. For offroad use they do very well. The day I put them on I was running a 3" body lift with 3.55 gears, open diffs, and a 4.6L and I was wheeling circles around klaibs with 9" of lift, 38" PJs, 4.56, LS rear, and a 5.4L. They have very good traction and handling offroad, they have good onroad handling and are quiet if you keep them rotated, and they are long lasting. Would I buy another set.......yes. Are they worth the $200 a tire you pay for 35s............yes.
