50,000 mile mud tires?
#12
I had 55k on the Nitto Trail Grapplers on my diesel F 250. I never thought that I would be able to get that many miles out of them due to the weight of the truck. Like a couple of guys said before the key is to rotate them, I did it every 5-7k which was a pain in the *** but so is spending 1,600 on tires every 30k miles if you don't rotate them.

I had about 55k on a set of nitto trail grapplers. The key is proper alignment, balance, proper air and rotating them. I now have a set of mud grapplers and I will be lucky to get 35k miles out of them.

I get over 50K on Cooper ST Maxx. Not a fully listed MT but they do VERY well with a 3 ply sidewall. 56K on the last set without a corrected speedo. Rotate, Rotate and Rotate some more.

I put right at 45k on my mud grapplers, still had a good bit left on them when I sold them. Was quite surprised since everyone talked about them not lasting long, granted I rotated right at every 3k. Swapped over to some cooper STT pro, curious to see how long they last. Nowhere near as aggressive, but good enough to get around the deer lease, ride good and are relatively quiet for a tire of its style.

Toyo mt will last the longest. Next is the nitto trail grappler. I have gotten over 55k on a 2010 f350 diesel and still sold them. I ran a 35x12.50x18 10ply. Rotated every 6-7k miles. Ran 65psi. Key is rotation and air pressure.
