Default Tread life on Procomp MT's??

I am thinking that this may be the best bang for my buck. What is the treadlife on these tires? Also, are there tires of same quality for cheaper?

I've had my ProComp MT's since last October and they seem to be wearing at a somewhat quick pace. Though this is my first mud tire so I'm not sure what the average is and I do wheel quite a bit (every weekend if possible during the summer).

As for performance of the tire, I've been very impressed! Been through some good sized mud puddles and haven't been stuck yet, drove them around on some winter wheeling trips and they were great in the snow, not very loud on the street. I have noticed some gashes in the tires from rocks but nothing has punctured and a few chunks of rubber are missing from a few tread blocks but overall, I plan to buy them again.

I'll measure my total usage later today compared to what they were when I started.

I ran out and checked how much they've worn, looks like they're down 3-5 mm from the normal 1 inch and 3 mm.

No idea how good that is but there ya go

Thanks for the reply....

What does that measurement translate to in miles?

I know others have these tires...please give me a thumbs up or down before I make the purchase!
