Thread: Goodyear vs maxxis

Then if you want a question, the question I ask is the same - how the hell? I've seen a set of those chew out on a work truck in less than 40,000 blocks chewed right back to rounded edges and positively loose in anything close to damp on sealed roads. Gravel, seal, towing heavy (up to the full 3500Kg) at least weekly if not daily on the times when it's needed and reasonably heavy loads being the norm. Only way I've seen them things last is being babied - if the guy is saying 100,000 is not unheard of he must be meaning the 1 in a million case which must be yours. As context, a set of front brake pads gone, metal on metal in 9000 is the use I'm meaning as not light duty.

I personally have not seen a set of MT go over 55,000 with anything useful left on them, I'm sure it happens but not in the use I'm putting them to. Context on the AT vs MT - I did 75,000 on the first set for this ute, currently at 135,000 with 4mm left on the second set with a stuffed set of lower ball joints and just starting to get the inner edge feathered at the front. Reminds me, must get onto that...
