Post Best Milage Mud Tire

Hey guys!

How many miles have you gotten out of your mud tires.

Toyo
Nitto
Cooper
Kumho
Mickey
PJ
ect.

I want to know what lasts the longest.

I have Mickey Thompson MTZ I haven't had them that long though but I love them so far but like any mud tire you must rotate regular. They said they are a 35000 mile tire since they still are a radial, sorry not much help for you.

Ive been very satisfied with my cooper STTs. I have a 3/4 ton chevy gasser as well with a set of 285 STTs on it. Ive got about 21K and there is a decent amount of tread left. Id say theyre about 30% tread left. I only have a few thousand miles on the STTs that are on my dodge so there are no visible signs of wear yet.

So you figure you will get 50k out of them?

I have 37k on a set of pro comp mud terrains, hoping to get another 10k out of them. Lots of offroad use which they help up great but the sidewalls are pretty tore up.

I had a tad over 56,000 miles on my BFG Mud T/A's when I traded the truck and they would have went over 60,000 easy before I replaced due to the winter coming if it was summer driving would have probably pushed to 69,000 miles before I was at the wear bars. Overall I was happy with them and missed them the other night as I went for the All Terrains this time around.

I have a set of Pro Comps with about 20K on them and they will maybe go another 10K before baldness sets in. They are a great tire but really soft, also a 2 ply sidewall. A lot of folks get great numbers out of BFG Muds.

I got 70k on the 1st set and 75k on the 2nd set of BFG Muds in 285-75-16's on the '97 Ford PSD of the past. Both sets siped and rotated every 7k and both had another 5k to go 'til the wear indicators.

I've got some Maxxis Buckshot 315's and they will be toast at 20-25K. I have 16K on them and probably only 5/32 left till the wear bars. I do have stock steel rims that are a little skinny and cause the center to buldge as if over inflated when at 35 - 40 psi. But I can buy two sets for the price of one set of BFG's. I'm into my tires less than $650. These tires are very sticky soft and do great in the dirt and rocks. Tear easily though.
