[QUOTE="Yellowyj, post: 704020, member: 3504"] My son's 2008 F150 has the Crosswind MT's on it and I have not been impressed with them at all. We didn't rotate them and in less then 10k miles the fronts cupped and are badly worn, but that could be more to his driving and other factors as well. I rotated and balanced them week before last and drove it to SC last week. I would be surprised if we get 20k miles on them before we have to replace them, partly due to not rotating them sooner. They have gotten louder as they have worn down. These tires are just now getting up to about 10k miles. I haven't had the front end aligned on this truck since we have owned it, but everything seems to be tight and in good shape with no pulling, vibrations or etc. The rears had worn down substantially as well. I haven't measured the tread depth, but just looking at them I expect to have to replace them around 20k if the front will last that long. When he finishes up his training and goes to his permanent duty station we will probably replace them regardless of the mileage on them. He was in boot camp until last week and the truck was only driven on the weekends for the past three months by me or my wife and I have not been a fan of the Crosswinds. They feel soft and have more sway driving down teh road then I care for. They do dig good and have reallyI have had several people ask me about them at the gas station or etc., but I have had to give them my honest opinion that I personally wouldn't run them again.
