PRO COMP TIRES

killerZ-71 · March 2, 2005

i had never even heard of PRO COMP tires before i got them last week. these tires are absolutely awesome. they literally grab onto ice and bite into it. they are really great tires, and they look mean. 4 wheel online has them buy 3 and get the 4th for free. that is quite a deal. if any one is looking for great new tires, i highly reccomend these. go to pro comp tires and check them out.

Does look like a good deal. What kind of road noise do you have with the new tires?

I have the X-terrains on my silverado in 35/12.50R17 and they are some awsome tires!

Usually, I don't do this, because I consider the site below in the same league as the CSK complaint websites, but I ran into the URL below which is more than negative about the Pro Comp tires:

Yeah, probably. Actually, all I'm trying to do is make sure Pro Comp's Cooper offerings are on the up and up and looking for some long-mileage reviews. I ran into that site. Whether the guy is an idiot or not, there are some other comments that MIGHT be worthing examining.

Oh yes, somebody here stated that the Pro Comp was the only tire that could prevent cactus punctures in the side-wall. I don't have that problem here, but certainly things in the woods have caused some problems on tire sidewalls in the old pasture.

Sounds like a great tire. Just trying to find some decent reviews that lists pros and cons, like TireRack and others.

Well I dont forsee any procomps in my future

killerZ-71 · March 3, 2005

i hope they turn out to be great in the long run. the tread is so awesome, but i guess the LONG HAUL is what counts. i will keep an eye on them, and report back at longer milage intervals.

I hope they are good. They are exactly what I am looking for with the nearly puncture-proof sidewalls.

I have a set of mud terrains with about 15,000 on them. No problems

Bgdsub72 · March 3, 2005

8800 miles on my X-terrains and no problems here. The tread pattern is very similar to the M/T Baja Claws (a very loud tire) and mine make minimal amounts of noise. Off Road Adventure mag. from 4 wheel parts has done a review on the Pro-comp series of tires compared to the BGF. They had numerous good things to say about the procomps...

I bet you could find sites like this for about every tire on the market if you looked hard enough. The problem of course with the internet is that there is no real way of knowing who has the products and who does not. I wonder that about the tirerack reviews some time. One of my friends has the ATs and has put about 10k on them. He drives a heavy Ford and drives it hard and does drive it frequently on trails. NO PROBLEMS. I personally dont like the sidewall styling of the ATs and the MTs, which is why I wont buy them. I also think they are overpriced. The XTs are awesome, but more than I need.
