Why is it when people argue about tire brands and spout off mileage numbers they fail to mention the load rating of the tire? I run a load range "E" tire on my 1500 Chevy Z71 that never pulls a trailer and usually get 60,000 out of the Terra Grappler or BFG A/T, I've tried both. As you know, the 1500 came with a lighter tire and rides stiffer with the "E" rated shoes.
My 2500 Dodge Mega came with a BFG tire from the factory that lasted 40,000. They've were replaced with the BFG A/T KO in a larger size and should go 50-60,000 miles. I would imagine that most of the guys in this thread are using a lighter, load range "D" tire and never pull a trailer or load them up heavy. Point being, you need to consider more than the brand of tire or what the punk kid at Hibdon thinks you're shocks look like.
