I was just curious about how well BFG's older KM1s hold up as far as tread life goes to get an idea of how much time I have to save money towards a new set of tires. I currently run a set JK takeoffs on my Jeep TJ that were advertised as "half tread", not entirely sure how accurate that statement is, with the original spare never being thrown into rotation until 3000 miles ago. I hear mixed reviews about tread life of these tires from 25k, 40k, and all the way up to 80k miles(something I normally hear associated with BFG's KOs/KO2s). For an idea of where my tires go, 90% pavement with the other 10% off road averaging around 8k miles a year. Main reason I'm concerned, these tires are fine for most of my driving and have actually impressed me being as tame as they are, but are scary anytime I'm on wet roads.
I'm having issues posting photos due to file size of the tread depth with a quarter to show tread depth, but for reference: 3 of the treads fall right at the top of the words "TRUST" on the face side of a quarter, one tread is chopped fairly bad and fluctuates above and below the same words, and the original spare is at the top or a little above of the words "IN GOD WE" on the face side of a quarter. I'll try resizing the files and get them posted in a separate reply.
