28,000 miles on an '06 Dodge 2500 CTD 4X4. Wear at about 75%. Will probably buy a new set the beginning of the year. I like these tires. They perform GREAT off road be it soft sand, gravel or rocky terrain. Tried them in the snow in Northern Nevada, seemed to do well. They cleaned themselves quite nicely. Great load rating if you haul and/or tow. And I dig the sound they make going down the road.


Now the bad stuff. These tires can take anywhere from an ounce to a pound of lead to balance. I've had to rebalance three times! They don't do well on wet pavement. I have a 6-speed manual and can easily break them loose going up the freeway ramp in 5th gear. Pretty easy to get sideways in a wet turn. Quite a bit of vibration too, but that should be expected from an open tread design such as this. And they WILL flat spot despite what you may hear.


In summary, I really do like the tires all things considered. They wear well if you rotate often and pay attention to air pressure. I would have rated them higher had it not been for all the balancing issues I've had. Overall pretty good stuff!
