How long did your stock tires last on your Ranger?

[HeavyDuty]

43 miles....before I took them off and up for sale.

Roughly 1000 miles.

Exactly 458 miles... the day after I finished my front coilovers and UCA's with adjustable Heim end joints swap....and before doing the alignment the next day at a shop familiar with modified suspensions and track racers....Heim joints are "tricky" and properly adjusting them should be done by an experienced technician...

Had stock Bridgestones for 18600 miles and just had Michelin LTX M/S installed at Discount Tire. World of difference, in fact felt the difference in the first 100 feet. The Bridgestone's were horrible in the rain and actually have 2/32 less tread depth to start with than most other brands. Very happy to have Michelins once again!!

@JJG, thank you for posting your comments on the difference Michelin tires were on your Ranger. We appreciate your support.

Those Michelins are fantastic tires. I would put them on my Tremor even though they are less off-road oriented than the General Grabber ATX tires that it came with.

If only @Discount Tire would offer me a sweet deal on a swap... ?

I couldn't wait any longer for the General HTS 60’s. They've been on backorder for over a year. Only reason I wanted them over the Michelins was the OWL. Always had Michelins on my 2000 Ranger until they stopped making my size which forced me into the Generals for my last set on that truck. IMO Bridgestones or Firestones are lackluster at best. Firestones came on my 2000 Ranger and were just garbage. These Bridgestone's weren't much better.

Discount Tire was awesome, however! I ordered the tires online, and made my appointment. They had me in and out in under 90 mins. Plus they roadforce balanced as a matter of standard protocol. Great guys at the Louisville, KY on Hurstbourne Pkwy store!!

90 thousand miles later, they're in brand new condition...sitting in my shed...

I got 43,200 out of the Hankook Dynapro's.....

Just swapped out the Dynapro ATMs @ 72k miles right before the snow started flying. Got my money's worth. ? Put on a set of 265/65/18 AT2 Xtremes and they are pretty impressive in the fluffy white stuff. Fairly quiet too.

38,083 on those horrible stock bridgestones when I switched to cooper AT3. the bridgestone wore out completely and unevenly. I have never had a good set of them but Coopers have never failed me in any way.

thanks @Discount Tire great service from Joe at the Aurora, OH store

Should easily last over 50K if you drive it as designed...as in, this is not a sports car, don't try to keep up with Minis on the Dragon...I'm on my second set and will easily fly past 100K...on 33" lol...my OEM? They'll last forever or until someone buys them...

You were way more patient than I was. I got rid of them at 24K. I probably could have gone to 26-28K but winter was coming an I didn't want to chance it.

When my stock Hankook Dynapro ATMs hit 50k miles, I scheduled a 2” leveling kit and a set of BFG All-Terrain T/A KO2 265/70R17 tires with Southern Off-road Specialists. The very next day, I blew a tire on the highway, and spent the next week limping around on my undersized spare. Sprung for the matching spare.
