Take notice of the fact that stuff is dated back in 04 and 05. Not sure it means much today.

You're right, that is old...and I don't see a problem with the tires.

The first guy obviously had something else wrong. You have to remember, these folks are getting lifts and have no idea they need an alignment...of course they got roasted in 15k.

The second guy is just a clown. His front tires are bad after 25k miles? That statement alone just leads me to believe that he had them on there 25k miles and never rotated. "The rears are starting to go as well"...no comment on how he drives...just a clown. Rotate, then there is no difference between the fronts or the rears, 4 tires should all react the same.

The third guy was duped by either a salesman that forgot to mention the load rating...either that or duped by himself for not checking the load rating then putting a backhoe on the tires. Of course they exploded, he was probably running 22 PSI at 80mph down the freeway exceeding the load range by double.

At this point, I stopped reading.

Procomp tires have had various quality control issues for quite a while now. It seems very hit or miss as some have no problems and others have nothing but.... The main problem is that 4WP & Procomp dont really stand behind anything so your SOL if you have issues. Buyer beware

That may be old but a friend of mine had a set of 33x12.5 coopers stt on his ford for like 10 or 15 thousand miles, and his tires were falling apart chunk by chunk I will have to foward this to him, but the picture of the tire with chunks missing reminded me of his, but his looked far worse.

i wouldnt buy any of their tires personally. i live in a small town and i hear they aint the best tire to buy, only so many people can make this stuff up, some have to be telling the truth. i dont hear good things about Pro Comp/or 4WP parts anymore, i wonder why

I've had Pro Comp Xtreme AT's on my truck for going on 12k miles now and they still look brand new. I figure over here in Hawaii I'll put maybe 8k miles a year on my truck so these should easily last me another 3 years and 24k miles. Then I move back ot CONUS and if these tires treat me right and do last that long I will gladly put another set of them on my truck.
