Got 130,000 miles on my Michelin AT tires and the rubber still hadn't worn down to replacement level. This includes a lot of Baja washboard roads.
Never had a single flat during that time. The BFG tires that were replaced didn't reach 50,000 miles.
Needless to say I was very happy with these tires. I am at this moment sitting in a recliner at Costco while they replace my old tires with identical
new ones.

Costco is usually my first choice but they don't carry the size I need for my truck. I have purchased tires for my Honda accord from Costco and agree
their service, price, and quality are hard to beat.

I have had the same experience as Larry C. I run Michelin LTs on an 04 F250 4wd diesel, and usually carry a lot of weight. I have never has any
issues. They are great on road, and good off road, but pricey.

I have a friend in Alaska that loves his Michelin's LT and all his trucks run on are dirt roads 90% of the time. (He has a 10 or so)I do like the KO's
and they are not the tires that toyota uses as the stock tire that some hate here. The KO's are much softer than the Michelin's, that's why the
shorter life. America's tire is a great place for tires.IMHO.
