I really beat the **** out of my Crossfire (frequently airborne/hard launches/rally-style off-road driving) , and I have gotten 23,000 miles out of them before I started losing traction. I will probably just buy the same tires, but still open to suggestions.
New Sumitomo's on as of last Friday. I burnt the last of the tread off of the old tires on the way to the store.
I can't believe how much of a difference they make. I'm glad I stuck with them. Total: $975.00 including mount and balance from Big O Tires in Greenwood, Indiana. I am extremely happy with them.
I should have the Rotex Golds in this week, can't wait!
