Future MTRs??? - Land Rovers Only

01001010 · 02-15-2007, 08:01 PM

I was looking through images from last years auto show and forgot about these. This was on the Jeep Patriot concept. Does anyone know more about these?

Very similar to the MT/R lugs.

they are wider spaced and offset by 1/2 lug (as if the tire was cut in R and L halves and turned 1/2 lug.

Possibly a future true mud terrain.

thanks for the photo.

Looks like the wider lug spacing will be a big improvement.

Hope these arent concepts treads and actually do go into production.

I love the current MT/R, Hopefully this will be a full mud for the Easties!

What is going on with those dual springs? are those the reverse springs like Safari Gard?

Wow, awesome, I love my MTR's, so these would be even better

Guys,

My bad...I saw another of the images and noticed I gave you guys the wrong name....not a Patriot....its the Gladiator!

The coolest truck in the show by far!
