BFG has discontinued the 33x10.5x15 AT's. They are not going to make any more. So I went with MT's. How many miles can I expect to get out of these tires? I got 55,000 miles out of my AT's. I hope I can get the same from the MT's.

Rollin’ on 33s
Really????!!! I just got a set for the 60 last September... 
The 33's still show up in their product brochure...It's a 2005 brochure, btw.

Last week I started shopping around for BFG 33x10.5x15 AT's. I called a few places around Phoenix and got prices on 5 of them. All of the shops told me I had to wait a week for them to special order them in. I expected that. I stopped by 4wheel parts/wholesale in Mesa and checked them out too. I was told by one of the guys there that BFG discontinued them. He was a moron, and since I don't drive a Dodge, Chevy, Ford or Jeep he was no help. Then came Discount/American Tire Co. The manager said he could get them in a week or so. I told them that 4wheel Parts said that they are no longer made. I watched him dial BFG/Michelin and querry the 33x10.5x15 AT's. He was told that they are no longer in production and what was out on the market is it. I did not want to buy them and find out a year or two later that I could not get one. So I opted for the MT's, which are still in production and not slated to be discontinued. 33x9.5x15 AT's and MT's are still being made but I don't like how narrow they are.

I understand why you didn't get them, if you get a ripped sidewall or flat, etc. when you go in for a replacement, they wont have one to replace it with.
To his original question, or rather, his only question, what kind of mileage is expected with the MTs vs the ATs. I know the ATs wear like steel, but how to the MTs fair?

I've got older MTs, 5 years old. But probably less than 15K on them. Mine are 33x9.5/15. Agreed that this is too narrow, lots of body sway unless you keep them at 38 +psi, I rotate at 3k or sooner. I am at a little less than 50%. Can see how they would wear really quickly if not rotated often (cross) and used for 80% road use. I drive long ways to get to fire roads and trails. Will switch to BFG At If I ever wear these out...at less than 2 k miles per year that will be a while...
would not have the MTs for daily driving, would kill me watching them grind down.
I'd even go to another brand other than BFG to get a AT in the size I wanted..would still buy a "traction" rated AT..I live in snow country..course I don't drive my rig to the ski hill..some fool might run into me!!!
Just my warped thought train..
