Pirelli Scorpion ATs have a 40k mile warranty . I think Yokohama also has a mileage warranty on their Geolandar ATs. The new BFG AT KO does not have a mileage warranty but has a free towing warranty. No one would give mileage warranty on the MTs because of the soft thread compound and the type of usage expected out of these MTs.

Sounds like you're gonna have one heck of an Explorer by the time you finish with all the mods. Please send some pictures to Rick to post here for everyone.

My bad, the BFG AT KOs do have a 40k miles warranty also.

The Bridgesotn Dueler A/T's have a 50,000 mile warranty on them. I think the M/T's do too from what I have read on the brochures. call your local Bridgestone dealer and see!

James -

Is the 50k miles warranty on the Bridgestone Dueller ATs for the new ones?

Thanks,
kvo

Yes, I just bought them about a month ago. They are guaranteed to last up to 50k miles. I think the M/T's are too. Go by your local bridgestone dealer and get a brochure on the A/T and the M/T. Sorry about the delay in answer, but i was out of time.

I have the Bridgestone Dueller AT 's. They are a good tire. They've been on for about 5k miles now and though the ride is firmer than stock, they still look new.

Kyle,

kvo is right about the Yoko's. My Geolandar A/T's have a 40K mile warranty. Judging from their condition now after 15K kms (10K miles), I'd say that they'll last even longer!
