Hi all, I currently have BFG Radial All-Terrain T/As (not the KO's) with 48,000kms on them. They are a LT245/70R16 and have around 5 mm tread depth left. I've been told by a few people that they should last me upto 80,000km. However I think the absolute max I can now expect out of this set is 55,000km. Is this normal sort of wear, or is it premature? They have done about 90% road / 10% offroad.

Hi all
I fitted BFG radials to my GU Patrol after trying other brands.
This set achieved 135,000 klms covering all types of terrain. (60% road 10% offroad.
The secret is to ensure tyre pressure is kept at 40 psi in my case.
I would not fit any other tyre to the nissan.
The dealer tyres only lasted 25,000 klms before they disinegrated. no assistance from Nissan to replace. So whats new did not want to know me after purchase complete.
