The Fortera's have between a 50,000- 70,000 mile warranty depending on which series Fortera you buy.

we drive all interstate pulling a 7klb trailer so that kindof shows how much work these tires are put through..

I'll just stick with the tried and true! Michelin & Goodyear have shown to be a great tire throughout their lifetime of being in business.

Not one of the best tires, but it's not the worse either.

Yes they do make them as street radials, A/T's, and M/T's.

I just misunderstood your previous statement in the beginning. I thought you said that your truck came with them as O.E. The regular Wrangler ST's, RT/S's, & AT/S's are the ones that I do not recommend!
Enough said about that.
Now lets talk about that Supershits tune you have!!!!
NOW.....I'm talking SH*T!!
