we run em on our farm pickups out here in the panhandle or texas over about and dry terrain (were in a drought) but i got into my powerstroke with about 269,000 miles and the coops were nearly new i think they said they had one rotaion on them so roughly 5000 miles and the pickup is at 293,000 miles and theyre ready to be changed. theyre startin to cap and the tread is little to none.. i drive 35 miles a day on the blacktop but anywhere from 1 to 100 miles a day on the dirt, over cornstalk, rock, grass, pretty much anything. (the cornstalk eats em up for sure) they grab like a mother in the mud but any tire needs tread. theyd slick right over right now if i had some mud around. during the season i had an irrigation engine in a field and i could drive down the road with the sprinkler runnin right in the road in 2 wheel with good tread. good tire, not so long lasting.. IMO

Thanks, My friend gave me his old burn out ones(Just have them because I got two new pep boy tires) , but he liked them before he destroyed them.
I drive alot, I have put 33K on my truck in one and three months. I drive alot on dirt roads, farm roads, mud, snow, ice, and on truck trails to go coyote hunting and all the critters that are fun to go hunt. I just want a good strong tire that will handle the crap I drive thru. I also make 3-5 1200 mile round trips to AZ, I think thats is what has done the most damage to these Kellys. Plus the majority of the dealers here will give me a deal and rotate them for free.

i drive threw cornfields and swamps religously, back and forth trips to south carolina to hunt with my uncle roger, nothing like swamp bucks but yeah i get stuck driving alot also to cure my trigger finger. i had super swampers which were staight crap.. got talked into buying them.. in my honest opinion as people say nowadays go for what you know, go for what "you" like and feel is best for you.

Well im 100% sure im gonna go with the S/T maxxs I was thinking about gettin BF Goodrichs KO but they suck in the mud, snow and everything but sand and pavement IMHO. I like straight up M/Ts but they are not what I need Luckily I dont have to go far to satisfy my trigger itch, got 1200 acres of flat land to shoot on... No luck on a Bull Elk though third year no shot taken, wish I wasnt so nice last year would have gotten a nice one... Thanks for you imput CR! One more question are they noisey at all? I dont care but I dont want them screaming down the Highway? Im around enough guns, and tucks..

I tried to catch up with my buddy but he no longer works there either and he wasn't at his part time shop, so I guess thats gonna take a little more huntin. The only bad about a straight MT is they suck on snow and ice, found that out the hard way by buyin a set for my old plow truck.

Most of the people who get them have enjoyed them. I know it's not the same, but we had a young lady that had some 285/70R17's on her Nissan Titan and loved them. Said she had very little road noise and at 11k miles (last time she was in that I saw her) the tires showed very little wear.
