Is 1/4" Thread Still SAFE?

[H2Finally]

Would appreciate help/input on 37" MTRs that only have 1/4" thread left:

1. Can I safely drive 80mph highways?

2. Can I safely off-road aired down to 20psi?

3. How fast would 1/4" wear until they're no longer safe?

4. I know y'all won't, but say you do, how much would you pay for a set of 4?

THANKS for all the (serious) answers!!

Brand new they are 5/8", so you are looking at around 40% wear left(if I am thinking correctly).

I'll try to find the digital camera and snap some pics of my new, 0 miles, MT/Rs.

Isn't 80 too scary for the (barf) princess?

[H2Finally]

"No, I'm not driving too fast. I'm just following the traffic!"

Oh Paragon, why didn't you buy two sets when you could, and sell me one??...

So, it's safe enough? 3,000 miles ok? $150 for all 4?

[PARAGON]

Considering I got mine at cost plus tax and shipping at $185 per, my opinion would be $150 for 4 is a good deal.

I think these tires can get around 30,000 miles if taken care of, I know they do in other sizes. So 3,000 miles would be 10% leaving you at 30% tread and that would still be acceptable, to me.

Those tires look really bad I would run my stock A/T before I ran those bald MT/R.

[H2Finally]

Justin, I love my stock. It's the 37" that is the magic number. My H2 has no air suspension, so sits really close to ground. I pity my exhaust system. It's crumpled but still working right now, but another hard hit and my exhaust will be gone -- and that's $700 ca-ching bye-bye!!

Paragon, thanks for your opinion. First the beautiful pics, then the 1/2 price. So go ahead, continue to rub it in -- how much did you pay for shipping again?

In any case, I actually got the tires for $25.. . Shipping is $125 . Will use these for "practice", and considering the Iroks for long term (brand new) ownership.
