85,000 miles and plenty left

[mwrbunny]

I can't wear out my original BFG TKOs out!!! Being the tight-arse I am, I wanted to get some mud-terrain tires but not until I got the full useful life out of the OEMs, but they're indestructible. I'm at 85K miles and they've probably got another 20K left in them!! I only want the mud-terrains because they look awesome....but I'm not off-roading. (I'm reading that the Toyo Open Country M/Ts are fairly quiet and handle ok on road) What kind of mileage can I expect out of a set of Toyo Open Country M/Ts?

with the toyos ive heard people say they have gotten 50,000 miles out of them. this could be myth but i have had mine for roughly 10,000 miles and i still have atleast 90% tread. still look like the day i bought them. and They are great on the road. Very quiet for a m/t and they didnt hurt my gas much at all. went from 11.7 mpg to 11.4 So in short i love them.... hope this helps

Thanks, was that drop in mileage because you went with 37s?

no i stayed with 35's but it dropped because i switched to mud terrains from the stock bfg's. anytime you switch to m/t's your gonna lose some mpg

I've got 70K on mine...Rotate often! And I highly recommend Siping the tires.
