Three flats in about three hours back in 1997, and I had a 4X4. It's not so much the vehicle or tire as it is a function of weight and speed as my good friends at Sanderson Tire once told me. My vehicle with Firestone tires was overweighted with two friends, extra fuel, a big cooler and supplies and my speed was about 35 mph. That said, since that time, I've had an excellent history with Goodyear Wrangler tires opting for the extra protection of higher end Wranglers like the Silent Armour tires. I would have liked to have seen how the Silent Armours would have fared under the same conditions as the Firestones - my guess is much better. But, that road FROM HELL will never see my arse again! LOL.
