These tires are incredible!
I have a 3500 SRW truck that pulls a 16,000lbs trailer (maybe 5,000lbs payload), that I need to use around the Ranch (off-road) and also to roll down the highway (loaded for long distances), so I need a good tread pattern for mud, that is able to withstand debris (sharp rocks, downed tree limbs, etc.) but will also have decent highway manners and durability. While on a long trip (before I got the Armor Hogs), fully loaded, I had a failed tire that did about $6,000 worth of damage to the truck. After an extensive search for an acceptable replacement tire, I stumbled across the Armor Hog ATX on Simple Tire. There was not much of info on reliability, tread wear, ride, etc. that I could find around the internet, but they are load range F and were very reasonably priced compared to the other tires I was considering. I decided to pull the trigger. I'm so glad that I did! These tires are about as close to a solid tire that you can get! The side walls are impressively thick, the tread is about the perfect pattern to provide great off-road traction on slippery surfaces, yet still have a relatively smooth ride on the highway. A drawback they do have (if you view it as a drawback) is they hold 96psi cold, and in my case I have to put at least 85psi in them otherwise they feel a bit "wiggley" at speed. Once I got the pressure "right" I was able to complete my longest trip of the year (1200 mi), during the hottest time of the year (98F+), fully loaded and they performed fantastic! I haven't had them long enough to honestly comment on the tread wear, but after about 4,000+ miles under load they still look brand new, whereas my Transforce and Cooper tires would have already started to show a good amount of wear. The wet traction on the street seems good when not loaded, though they are just a little less planted than the other brands I've used, probably because they are very stiff, due to the build quality and the amount of pressure I run in them. The Armor Hogs are definitely going to be my tire again when it is time to replace this set!! I highly recommend them!
