AMEC...well...you know me and warranties...I have no clue. As far as I knwo they don't have a tread life warranty.

Here is a pic of where the 325/60R20's rubbed on stock 20's and stock suspension.

Thanks

Back in my Mustang days I stopped using Goodyear for that reason....no warranty. If I decide to put on winter tires, I'll prolly go with 325/60R20's with BFG AT's. I don't think they'll hit the 4-link.

Personally, I never thought the BFG AT KO's were very good in the winter, compared to an actual winter tire. I had them on my last 2 trucks BUT also had a set of actual winter tires for both trucks. But I drive on snow and ice about 6 months of the year.

Thanks

Yes, they are a winter rated tire (have the snowflake symbol) but you can leave them on in the summer. So I am using them winter and summer.

Thanks
