You get what you pay for! These tires are cheap, loud, soft compound with a rough ride and unreliable long term.
These tires are awful. They're loud and get terrible mileage. They ride rough with a bunch flexing under load. The tires are a "flotation" style and love to wander following every rut in the road and even on air bags feel like your driving over railroad crossings at every seam or pothole in the road. The real problem I have with these tires is that they FAIL! All four of the tires on my pickup failed. The tread separates from the casing and a huge bulge appears causing vibrations. If you don' t realize it they will blowout and the entire tread will peel off. I have had five of these and four of them did this all around the 15,000 mile mark with 75 percent tread life left. I think the compound they"re made of is maybe softer causing the loud road noise and increased temps at highway speeds. After having 3 fail in one weekend 400 mile road trip ( within a 24 hr period) ,4,000 dollars damage to my truck and one very stressful emergency stop on the freeway I was told by a major tire retailer (LS) that these are known to have issues and some customers have purchased them and then returned them. I would never buy them again. They would probably be ok for a dedicated off road rig but I wouldn't trust them at highway speed or for highway use. I replaced them with Mastercraft tires which I am told are made by Cooper tires. They have a similar tread pattern and are 3x as quiet . The cost per tire is comparable and my mileage has increased as well. Under no circumstance could I recommend these tires.
