PitBull Tires

Does anyone run PitBull tires on their daily driver?? I am wanting to put the PitBull Rockers on my truck but I drive over 2,000 miles a month to work and back alone and Im not sure about how the bias-ply will work out @ 75mph all the time.

I had a buddie who ran pit bulls for a daily driver and it drove like boggers. He has a 99 cummins. He said they kicked a$$ in the mud but once they got on the interstate they sucked pretty bad.

I wouldnt expect them to last very long if you are driving that much on the highway.

Well that sux. I was hoping they would work out cause they look pretty mean. I have the Super Swamper SSR's right now and I have put 30,000 miles on them. All highway of course. But they worked out pretty good. Only complaint is that they were terrible when the roads were wet. Especially now with as little tread as they have left.



Here is a picture for you of the PitBull Rocker

these are an amazing tire in the rocks and pretty good in mud but not something you want as a daily driver. they ride like boggers on the highway. not a good road daily driver tire. they are awesome looking tho. if you are going for looks, and can deal with a bumpy and loud ride, go for it.

If u dont mind a bumpy ride and dont have a problem with spending then i would say go for it. they do look pretty dang mean. Much better in person

I am going for looks for sure and I dont mind the noise at all. The ride is kind of important though. My other concern is that I really dont want to have to buy a new set after 10,000 miles. That would be ever 4 to 5 months for me so it would kind of be a pain in the butt. Does anyone have any other suggestions on a really mean looking tire that wont wear so quickly?? And one that every doesnt already have like the BFG's.
