Does anyone have these tires? If so do they get good tread life? I have found a good deal on some 37s but my jeep is a daily driver

They are fairly soft and tread life won't be very good on a DD. I would go with something different if you will be seeing a lot of street use.

I had them on my Chevy 2500, and they last between 12,000 and if really lucky 18,000 miles before they need to be replaced. They may last a few more miles on a lighter JK, but even on the Taco I had in the 1990s, they didn't last more than that. On a DD, I would not recommend IROK tires. It starts to hurt the pocket book when you have to budget spending $2,000 plus every 12 months are so. (I had 42s on the chevy, so more money than typical JK sizes). On a side note, the side walls are so thick that I had them at less than 10 psi, due toa nail, and could not tell by looking at them. Could make a difference on trails when you try and air down.

20k may be a good expectancy from the irok's but certainly not much more. I've got a friend who bought a set (37's) for his DD but knew they would be slick soon so he was on the prowl for used tires all the time.
