GT Radial Adventuro AT3 Tyres

[JME_GU]

April last year I bought a set of GT Radial Adventuro AT3 tyres. These are light truck tyres, they aren't that cheap (I think they were about $265 per tyre) but the tyre shop said they were great. The first time I went 4WDing they got large cracks (about five per side of each tyre) running vertically from the tread to the centre of the tyre. These cracks aren't chips or gouges from damage (e.g. rocks or sticks) they seem to be like fatigue cracks. I typically drop tyre pressure to 24psi, the tyre shop told me I shouldn't drop them below 30psi. I have now been 4WDing with them three or four times, nothing difficult or anything like that and the last time I went out I got two flats with damage to the sidewall. They have been good on the road, with good grip and excellent wet weather traction but they are virtually new and I am throwing them out. If anyone is considering GT Radials I would recommend you look elsewhere.

I'm going in tomorrow to blow $1,500 on a set of BFG KM2

Ask fr warranty on them if they have failed due to manufacture fault. which is what is sounds like. They are a 4wd Tyre, you are not obligated to leave them over 30psi! thats Pointless! Go back and ask for a Warranty or a Trade in. You fitted them on his advice.

Tyre shop I bought them from said sidewall damage is not covered by warranty regardless of how it happened. :(

The good news is that I have just picked up the Patrol with a brand new set of BFG KM2s and they are awesome. They are actually more quiet than most ATs I have had, and they even seem to handle pretty well on the tarmac :)
