How many miles can I expect out of a set of Dirt Grip Tires? There is no mileage warranty on this type of tire due to many factors:

     - Type of driving: Off-road, rock crawling, mud, sand, unpaved roads, highway

     - Modifications to the vehicle such as lift kits, suspension, shocks, struts

     - Maintenance to the vehicle- alignment, suspension, brakes

     - Maintenance to the tires- proper air pressure, rotation every 5,000 miles, alignment of the vehicle

     - VERY IMPORTANT- WHEN DRIVING IN ANY OFF-ROAD CONDITIONS WHEN AIR PRESSURE IS LOWERED, MAKE SURE TIRES ARE PROPERLY INFLATED BEFORE RESUMING HIGHWAY DRIVING  

While there is no mileage warranty on this type of tire, we do have examples of customers who have as many as 41,000 miles and are still driving with good tread.
How do Dirt Grip Tires perform in on-off road conditions? The tires were tested by Petersen's Four Wheel and Off Road Magazine (May 2001 issue).  They were rated outstanding in all conditions.  They proved a good self-cleaning ability in mud, floated in the sand dunes, gripped the rocks and boulders,  and gripped in the snow due to the aggressive shoulder blocks, deep siping, and wide open voids.

The tire also performs very smoothly and quietly on the highway for this type of tire due to the PJ tread design which is similar to a rib highway tire.

Four Wheeler (January 2002 issue) also tested the tires and rated them (on a scale of 1-5) 4 stars in the mud, 4 stars in rocks, 5 stars in sand, and 4 stars in the street.

For more reviews of Dirt Grip Tires see Bronco Driver Magazine March 2004, 4 Wheel Drive and Sport Utility Magazine January 2004, and JP Magazine January 2004.
