Stock BFG tread life?

[Flash1034]

Looks like I’m only gonna get 30k out of my stock BFG tires. I’m not hot ridding around much either. Is this normal?

thanks,

I'm at 27k and mine look to go 40k easy. But there are a lot of variables involved. Production lot, local roads, temperatures, inflation, cornering aggression, etc. We've got crappy roads, but lower temperatures, I watch my inflation, and I drive like I'm in a pickup and not a sports car ...

You got lucky. I can’t get 20k out of a set. After this 3rd set I am done with them, this last set only lasted 15k. Got me some Falken Wild peaks coming to discount tire this weekend.

Keep the tires inflated to oem specs, not this cushy ride most gen 2 owners want and rotate those tires every 5000 miles properly and stay off the gravel roads, lol. So, no fun allowed!

I'm at 42,500 on my OEM KO2's. Checked tread depth this weekend and still have 8/32. I keep the front at 36 to 38 and rears at 32 to 34. Didn't rotate the first time until about 20,000 and have been rotating every 10,000 since. Live in Florida Panhandle with lots of heat and humidity. Had similar experience on a previous set on my '13 SCrew. Got 62,000 on E-Rated 275/65 R 18s.

They just wear in the middle that way. I run 38 all around on trips when I'm fully loaded and 35/33 to 36/34 unloaded.

23k on my stock set and they have roughly 9/32nds left on them. Giving them up for Falken’s as well pretty soon
