tires not lasting????
#11
I have these same tires with maybe 10k on them? There about half wore out in the back fronts maybe 3/4 tread. I never rotate them and sometimes pull a heavy trailer.
These tires suck in my opinion. They are way to soft for a heavy truck (6500 and up). The tread pattern is pretty good in the snow but horrible in any kind of wet offroad conditions. They do handle well on wet roads.
If I had a 1/2 ton truck or maybe an old school cummins they might work better as far as wearing.
A friend of mine had them on his 2500 chevy gasser and they wore fairly well, but then again that truck weighs much less than what we are dealing with.
A total waste of money in my situation as they did not perform to my standards with wearing and offroad capability.
My next set will either be a set of interco trxus or firestone mts. I'm leaning towards the trxus because they are fairly cheap, they have an E load rating, and they are about as good as it get on the pulling track. A downfall i have seen though with them is they don't like turns on wet roads and pack up with mud like right now.

Hey man, I got a pretty heavy foot myself. Get yourself some BFG Mud KM2s. Yes they're a bit more expensive, BUT, I rotated em MAYBE every 10K miles and ran around 60psi in em. Believe it or not, I got a little over 60,000 miles out of them. The only reason I got rid of them then was because I'd done some burnouts and had two tires that were much lower on the tread than the other two.

I work at a tire shop also and terra grapplers absolutely suck!!! But look good hahaha I have toyo open country at on mine and they have lasted for about 40 thousand miles and still look great! Michelin makes an excellent tire!! They have like 50 to 60 thousand mile tread life I'm putting a set on my truck when I'm done buying the rockstArs! And the toyo m/t do last quite a bit of time.
