i have had pro comp 35 inch muds on my 80 for over the last 2 years and have done over 60 000 km on them. never had a problem with them!

give them a look as they are going as a pay for 3 and get one free deal!

coopers mate. providing all the lugs dont fall off they will do 1000000000000000000000 kms

you'll get good life out of most tyres as long as you keep to the 3 important things:

pressure
rotation
wheel alignment

A/T my a$$

My MTRs are wearing okay so far.. and are great in all conditions.
I don't know why they have a bad name in mud

They are a lot softer comound though, so I thought on a heavier car they would wear a bit more.

I've got 100,000k outta my old style BFG muds, but that's on a relativley lightweight vehicle. They're farked now and due for replacement.

Claws only give about 50,000 km but fark do they love mud and rocks

yeah, id expect to get 60-70 out of my 33 claws.

ive done 20 000 and they look to be about 75% (if i dont sell em and go 35's

)

Thats rotating the spare in, keeping good pressures and getting them balanced properly each time, while keeping a good wheel alignment.

I find mine clog up quickly. I think the BFG's perform better in mud, but MTR for everything else

simex 36 et2 are the best for wear if you got the $$$$

Posted: **Thu Nov 16, 2006 8:15 pm**

New compound BFG muds 35". up to 60 thou with about 30% left.

Aren't they bias ply?
I thought they wouldn't have as good wear characteristics as a BFG or the likes.

can anyone comment on the silverstone 117 sports? ps, also would love to know about the simex et2's

Posted: **Thu Nov 16, 2006 10:46 pm**

i've run a set of 5 33'bfg muds on my GQ rotated every approx 10,000k's and got 100,000k's out of them. Copped two punctures in them from crap on the road

but no other probs. Handled well on road as is daily driver and perform offroad.Got the same again this year.

yeah i will vouch for that... i had a set on my middy for 4 years did every thing on them and to them ripped numerous lugs off on rock trashed the bead protector and only one puncture due to some half wit tradie on site recon i got well over 80 000+ km out of them and they are still goin but a mate uses them no on his week end warrior

run extremely well at 115-19 psi when wanting to tackle the hard stuff too... i cant fault em

ive done at least 20k on them and they look like new still, (except for the usual cuts from rocks etc..)

Posted: **Fri Nov 17, 2006 12:36 pm**

BFG muddies seem to be going ok so far

Posted: **Fri Nov 17, 2006 4:21 pm**

Cooper STT's

Posted: **Fri Nov 17, 2006 4:21 pm**

i treat my bfg muddies like crap - no allignment (yeah i probebly need one) and i lost all my weights the first time i hit rocks. i'm looking at 45000 now and their about half way worn. i've seen claws as slicks after 60K when treated nicely.
