I'm thinking of siping my new MTRs. From everything I've read the traction is increased dramatically on rocks and the treadlife is lengthened somewhat.

Alright, everyone else...chime in.

Thoughts, comments, a-hole remarks...go

Thanks,

I had my BFG's siped and it has made a world of difference on wet pavement, especially those soaking downpours that seem to happen a few times a month. They haven't hydroplaned since I had it done. On the rocks it has made a bit of a difference but hardly a dramatic difference. As for treadlife I have read that it will help improve treadlife but since this is my first set of BFG MTs I couldn't tell you whether that was true or not. It is fairly inexpensive so there aren't a whole lot of downsides. However, don't get your outside lugs siped or it will lead to chunking.

Hey, I'm interested in siping by BFG's. Who in the Greensboro/Burlington area does it? Any ideas?
Thanks!

I had mine done at Discount Tire off of High Point Rd. for $10/tire.
