Yes & No ,,, Let me explain. Yes the one pictured are the Goodyear Wrangler Adventures but with Kevlar. Same tires but the ones that come from LR do not have the Kevlar, I have no idea why? I was able to purchase a like new set from offer up. The guy replaced them shortly after getting his defender with a different brand. Therefore I got a great deal on 5 like new OEM tires from Land Rover without the Kevlar. If I was to buy new, I would purchase the ones with Kevlar,I mean why not? Hope this helps.

I'll agree that the GY Wranglers are good in rain and with a less aggressive tread pattern, they are also quiet on the road and really good in soft beach sand. However, be aware that they are terrible on ice and snow. Other mild AT tires like the Falken Wildpeak will be better in winter if you're not running dedicated winter tires.

which add on flares are you going with? Do you know how much wider they are? That can determine if you want to go with a lower offset wheel or try and run a wider the man stock tire.

Be aware that the sidewalls on the LR GY Wranglers are paper thin. I had a set and on a mild off-road trail cut through the sidewalk on two tires. I replaced with BFG KO2. Other thing to be aware of with the GY Wrangler - they are terrible in snow / ice. I live in CO and would not recommend them for anyone in a colder climate.
