Did you get even wear and how about rotations.

I like my procomps a lot. A buddy of mine has 30k on the same ones with a ton of tread left.
They were about 20% cheaper than bfg km2 and mtr/k. So if they wear out 20% faster its all good. But I don't see that happening.

The Procomp Xtreme All-Terrains wore evenly on the H2. No cupping or unusual pattern. I rotated them only about 3 times and I liked the squared look of the tire. I would think the weight of the vehicle also played a factor on how evenly the tires wore. The JK is about a ton lighter but I still think they should wear evenly.

Well I don't totally agree what's said about procomp's extreme mud terrain tires. I've had these tires on my rubi which is my DD, since I bought it in 2009 and I drive this thing like an idiot on and off road. I got almost 52k miles on it and the tires are not worn except some chipped lugs from crawling up rocks. I honestly think industry professionals such as WOL will say they burn up some tires fairly fast because he is like comparing a abrams tank to a mountain bike. Regular Joes n janes will not in my opinion run these tires down as fast as mentioned above.

Pro Comp tires (as well as Mickey Thompson and Dick Cepek) are made by Cooper. They are every bit as good as all the other big-name tire companies, and their high-silica rubber compounds are just as wear-resistant as other top brands. You can expect directly comparable tire wear between all of the Cooper/Pro Comp tires and Goodyear and BFGoodrich.

I am leaning toward the Nitto Trail Grapplers... I have received positive feedback from many of the forum members.

I can tell you that on my F250 I got 60K miles on 35" BFG All Terrains... I noticed they are more expensive than the Trail Grapplers in this size 35x12.5x18.

X2.... have 40k on my trail grapplers .. love them ... probably get another 20k out of them... perform excellent off road as well ... not to mention they look great as well...

I had extreme mt pro comps on my 07 ram. They lasted only 45000 miles and they totaly sucked in snow and ice.also had uneven wear.rotated every other oil change and ran them at 35 psi.they are a bad ass looking tire though.
