Default Trail Grappler Mileage?

Anyone running trail grapplers, how long have they lasted? I am about to order these and I just wanted to check before, how many miles should I expect to have them for?
Thanks

I had some for about 8k miles before I sold them. I think theyw ould have gotten 35 to 40. Would be surprised if they got more than that. They ride great because they are soft, hence the lower end on the mileage. Great tire though

I just bought some and love them but I can't say much on the mileage yet. I'm just curious why you got rid of yours?

I was parting out my 2010 to sell it so I could buy my 12 Rubi. I have 35 BFG KM2s on it now.

I had a set on my 08 and had right at 15k on them and they was holding up great. I'm sure I would have got 40,000 easy out of them.

Had them in 255/75/17s and hated them. Way to heavy and wore out quickly. I couldn't wait to get them off my 2 door. They are very heavy in any size. Not worth it when there are better options with less weight in almost every size.
