Since this is a generic section, obviously tire wear will be affected by vehicle weight.

I had a set of Cooper ATP, which are the same as the AT3, and got about 25k miles out of them under my 2500 which weighs a tad more than a 1500. They had some tread left, but were worn through the siping and into the harder tread compound which made them slippery on wet roads and completely useless on winter roads.

I think the p-series Coopers have a 50k mile warranty though?

ATP's are rated to 55k, I believe. My E rated ones were anyway. They still had sipes nearing 60k.

Vehicle weight and use affects a lot. I was happy to go to the ATW's for a life of 45k and more snow/wet traction. Having a pattern similar to the AT3's I knew they would handle dirt well too.

I got over 50k miles, when I traded my old Sierra in, on my P rated cooper discoverer at3s. Central Texas winters and lots of rain. They did well in the rain can’t speak on snow or to much ice.

When winter actually gets here, I'll order a set of the ATW. Even if I replace them yearly, still cheaper than a deductible claim and/or headaches from an accident.

What size did you get? I found a set of the very same tire on TireBuyer.com for $643.96 shipped and installed locally. You must have got a bigger size I assume?

Ahh, I see. The 20"s are probably more than the 18"s, too.

I havent even got them on yet. They are at the tire shop. My appointment is tomorrow. Took a week to order them and a week for them to find a spot to squeeze me in.

Anyone running the Toyo Open Country WLT1? Was debating between them or the BFG ko2, they'll be on ugly base stock wheels

[8lugCT]

I was debating between the toyo open country at ii extreme and the bfg ko2,  and went with toyo bc I read a lot of people having issues balancing the bfg. Anyone know of that issue?

havent had a balance problem on my k02s with 30 k on them
