CQ, Yep at 70psi boost those puppies without LSD would not stick to the track at 50psi in the rears. That was the problem. 38psi boost was 550hp. Hmmm, Yep it was the tires, man did I waste alot of money building an engine when all I needed was fast wearing tires. I also towed my 4 ton dump/log trailer with 5 cord of wood on it out of a muddy field uphill for a quarter of a mile in 4Lo with the diffs dragging on the ground...And the tires were clean by the time I hit the road.....but it took 4 hours with the pressure sprayer to get the mud off the truck. Just saying that if you spend 2 bills on a tire they should last for at least 50k miles. Some people buy for looks, I buy for performance. I've never gotten stuck with these tires and I really go offroad but mostly with a trailer on the tail. With a dually, offroad traction is always an issue. Not much ground pressure. Like they say...it doesn't matter where I've been it's where your going. ks

Easy...easy.
I bet you would have had better luck with 30 psi than 50. Lots of tread patch for little load in the back of an unloaded dually.
Just trying to keep it light.
I do feel that the tread compound on the Coopers seems a little hard.
I also do expect a 200 tire to last 50k if rotated and aired properly.
