Humvee Braintrust, I am looking for advice on something that seems related to this thread, on my 37" Goodyear Wrangler M/T military tires. With supplemental info and pics below, could I keep on driving on them given my driving habits or should I immediately get them swapped out before I kill myself (or others)? I don't know if this is a thread hijack, mods let me know and I'll post as a new topic, thank you all in advance. I am sitting and ready for the unvarnished truth which may hurt....
- Driving Habits. I put around 10mi or so a month just to maintain the Humvee circulatory system. No highway driving just local on-road only, never over 45 mph.
- Tire Pressure. I always maintained 20 psi because I never knew any better. After reading up on SS forums I am now kicking myself and will start maintaining 30 or so psi.
- Cracks in Sidewalls. My right front (mfg'd 4th week of 200 and left rear tires (46th week of 2005) show these gouges in pics below. My fronts have about 40% tread and rears are 70% and all have the original run flats in them.
