i can get a really good deal on these tires but i have no idea how good they are. my friend has them on his F250 superduty diesel king ranch and they still have some decent tread left after 40,000 miles only bald up front in the middle from doing burnouts before the tire rotation. he says they're great and should be good off-raoding too. they seem to wear pretty good on his 9,000 pound 650+ HP beast.

im just wondering if anyone has had any experience with this tire brand on their liberty? I mean ive only got 12,000 miles on mine and the stock tires are just about worn out. i need something that can live up to my lead footed driving habits. I guess what im looking for is a tire that takes a while to wear and is also great on and off the road especially in the snow. thanks for your help guys.

Allow me to interpret if i may.... :lol:

Skipper was just saying that the tires are pretty good for a daily driver.... but they are just an All Terrains...
As opposed to something like an MT ( mud terrain or maximum traction - take your pick...) which a fair amount of the guys on here use...

Clear as MUD? :?:
