personally i couldnt .. i reacon 4k would by the max i could get but they would be well past their best off road at 2600
i tend to change them out around 2700 miles on average
all these tyres have done less than 3 k and have been changed as a precaution ...i.e long trip and reduded off road grip except the sirac which was just not up to the job
the exception is the k60 scout thtas done 4500 with loads of tread left ..the problem with the scout was ..when it wears to tyhe centre band its slippy on wet grass and mud ..biy i would still use this tyre on dry trails no problem ..but its not practical always to wait for a dry day
its a tyre that would do well in morroco ..as long as deep sand is not your bag i reacon it would do 7 /8 thousand ..but its a decent tyre on drytrails and very very goodon tarmack
if i do morroco again next year i would fit one with a tk front
in the main pic they dont look too bad but up close theres not a lot left
the close up of the tk is well less than 3k on the tyre so another1000 may be optomistic
ive heard people tell of big milages on them ...the front lasts for 6/7 off road and maby 10 on road
but how they get more than 4 off a rear ive no idea

its when it gets to this it is poor on slippy ground but would probably go on for another three or 4k
its a decent rugged dry destination tyre
