I know that 50.000miles (80.000km) warranties aren't unusual in the US.
Over here I would be happy to get that mileage out of them.
20.000 miles or 30.000miles if you drive like a grandma are the usual mileage.
Those tires must have a real hard compound like the old BFG's had to reach that goal?
A hard stiff tire isn't funny to drive during rain.

We put these Firestone AT's on a Jeep and they are great on it in the mud snow and rain.

I just put a set of 325/65/18 E on my pickup yesterday, glad to see this post and hear they are allright tires. I had to do some shopping to find wheels (18x9) that wouldn't rub. my truck isn't lifted

I've got about 3k miles on these tires so far, and really love em! I am happy with them. Almost NO wear shown on them, and they are still smooth as can be!

as far as i know there is no 50k warranty on the E/10ply tires. atleast there wasn't when i got mine 4or5 mouths ago. i put my 285 70 17's on the back of my work truck. put a 1/2" spacer in but i don't think its going to be enough. i think they will rub when i'm loaded heavy. i might just keep them for the front. bfg just came out with a 255 80 17 m/t should work great on the duelys. its 33x10x17 E 10 ply
