Proper tire care will make them last a lot longer than if not looked after. What pressure do you run them at? I run mine at 30 as the side walls are very strong and teh max is 50psi so no need to go too high!

Cool. I normally run mine at 35-40psi. Depends on the weather. But not sure about Cooper tyres how many K can they last on a normal driving. Thanks anyway 1010

I won't tell you then that I have gotten over >70k miles, not kilos but miles, from BFG AT's. The AT's use a harder rubber compound then the MT's. MT's will wear out quicker due to the need for a soft rubber compound. I am sure I could have my Dad write a dissertation on this if you wanted. He was a Chemist in the Test Lab for BFG and Uniroyal for 30 years and has lots of experience destroying tires and turbos. :smiley3:

I have over 15k kilometers on my current BFG AT's and I still have the the little rubber nipples on them. :smiley2:
