That sounds about right. i was gunna go with em, and just decided not a wise investment (on my part). People seem to get about 20k . Some people will get a bit more, like 30k or so and I had a buddy with em on his chevy (2500 so a bit heavier and he ABUSED em) he got like 15k and still loved em.
Great looking tire tho ! I went pro-comp extreme M/T instead and they are treating me great so far. Also, check out the new bfg KM2 .... another great looking tire.

I've got a little over 15k on mine and they aren't really close to half worn out yet. At this rate I expect 35k. I'm pleasantly surprised. Maybe nI got a good batch or something wierd, dunno.

There's a guy at work with a TJ Wrangler with Mud Graps, he's got about 23K on them and they are trashed.

I am guessing average is then 20-30k if you take care of them. Which for the cost i guess is not too bad. They are a sick looking tire.

I will take some pics of the tread on my tires. I do rotate them every thousand miles, I'm sure that has something to do with it. I had always heard that they are the loudest and worst wearing tire you can buy. They are wearing great so far but no getting around them being loud!! But they do look cool. Best looking tire out there, IMO.

I have had my 37X13.50X20 mud grapplers for 42,000 miles and they still have about 3-4 thousand miles left to go. I rotate them every 3,000 miles. I am about to but a new set. These tires are cheap, good lookin and they last just as long if not longer than all of the other mud tires on the market today.

I just got the Mud Grapplers on my truck. Great looking tire! I knew getting them would not be wise due to wear and noise. My work rotation (Im an airline pilot overseas) is 10 weeks on 2-3 weeks paid off. Those 2-3 weeks off I dont always come home. Im planning vacations over in Europe... Therefore, my truck is going to sit A LOT! So wear is not one of my concerns! Now the noise is a bit much, but not as bad as some of the other mud tires available. These tires sound exactly like your sitting in the cabin of an Airbus A320 equiped with Rolls Royce engines (not the General Electrics). So being a pilot, I think its cool!

thats a really nice looking truck there CRJ PILOT. I really like it. You gotta hurry on back to it, so you can take it out and get it dirty and share some more pics. And was that you doing your own install ?
