Question about tires

Interco makes the Super Swamper line of tires. They are top notch tires for off-roading. The Super Swamper Bogger is undoubtedly the best all around off-road tire. It is THE BEST for mud, and is great on rocks too, because it is capable of flexing at low air pressure settings. The downside of virtually all off-road tires is the longevity. None of them last very long compared to standard car/truck tires. You sacrifice long tire life in exchange for superior traction. On average, I'd say you'll get 25-40,000 miles out of them. You'd better make sure your front-end alignment is good to help them last longer. Rotating them every 2-3,000 miles probably plays the biggest role in longer tire life. A normal tire set should be rotated about every 4-6,000 miles, but off-road tires require more frequent rotation because of their different rubber compounds and tread designs. Be prepared for a sore wallet because all off-road tires canbe quite pricey. Hope this helped......
