They WILL pick up rocks on gravel roads. But thats because of the tread layout.

Also, I think you will want the S/T-C. Its designed for use on gravel, and has a special chip resistant compound. The compound is a little harder, so it doesnt have quite as much grip, but I think it will be better for your area with lots of gravel roads.

I typically change tires when I hit 25% tread, just because I can't afford to be caught with bald tires when I need them most. I am expecting to get 30k "mountain miles" out of them. Which I consider to be quite good. I have had other mud and offroad tires wear out in 10-15k miles up here. Heck, the TSL's on my J10 have about 8k on them, and are at less than 50% tread.
