[QUOTE="SRAD97750, post: 140936, member: 425"] As far as tires go, Life expectancy is the last quality I look at. If I wanted a long lasting tire I'd get one, but it would be worthless in the dirt. I look at footprint, knob spacing, and reviews regarding front end feedback and predictability. The front tire is by far the most important to me. If I can't trust the tire in EVERY instance, then it's worthless to me. Life expectancy is useless for the performance I'm after. -BIG DAN:thumb: EDIT- I run PSI so low I have a tendency to destroy rims. But I'd rather replace rims than smash my face into a rock due to do a lowside in the sand. [/QUOTE]
