Date code 2718 I placed em on when I worked at big o as a mechanic, been at beemer since. But have been super impressed with the quiteness, durability, gripage, and handling of these tires. If my truck was 4x4 I'd give five stars all around, but even in extreme snowy slippery conditions with a rwd, I've been able to make it home every time. I will purchase again!
My truck is used on dirt/muddy roads all the time and it fairs very well. Trips to the garbage dump (paved roads) are good, all though a little tire noise but my side pipes makes the tire noise not as loud. They could be better in snow, they’re okay but not the best. Tire chains are recommended from me if you do live where it snows often (it doesn’t snow a lot in Delaware).
All in all, if you want VERY good tires then these are for you!
I drive the crap out of my vehicles.. these things are amazing...
Quiet, smooth, tough, great grip in all conditions...
Over 100mph on the highway.. and 60mph down rough Arizona rocky back roads..
Very confident riding on these tires!!!
I can't rate the tread wear ...only because I'm VERY hard on my tires... I got 25,000 out of my last set .. no flats, no problems at all.. I put new ones on last month... I wouldn't change a thing!!!
Let the good times roll !!!!!
My tires never last as long as the manufacturer states...
Been that way since I was a kid...
I've driven on these tires 10 out of the last 13 months (I have snow tires mounted on different rims).
I have had 3 flats in the 10 months I've driven them. All in different areas, one of which on the stem valve. I don't drive off paved roads too often. I don't drive on or by construction sites. These tires are made with inferior materials.
They are loud.
They are more expensive than many other brands with comparable value, they are only 6 ply tires.
Tires wore out at 29000 miles. Used them off road a bit and hauling my fifth wheel and the tires started splitting. Handled horribly in snow. Waste of time and money. Went back to my Michelin ltxs got 70k out of them baf boys.
Had (the best) 8-ply for off-road with 50 psi, those caused death-wobble (or death-rattle) of front-end, very severe, needed solution, these tires cured that problem. These look good too, wider than 245 obviously, more beefy, 1/2 more clearance plus very nice look. Just drove 500 miles about 50 miles off road, and then in sever monsoon rain, absolutely no issues, smooth ride, much quieter too, no problems taking bumps properly that used to cause that death-rattle (which is like hitting severe washboard and getting into a harmonic, was nasty, these tires fixed that). Hihgly receommend for the Trailhawk. Had other big-foot in Durango, no problems there either. UNABLE to rate SNOW, but look like they will be ok, nice tread pattern.
