I've put 100,000 miles on two sets of Wrangler GSA tires; no problems.

Offroad or On? I just had a blowout on one, granted there was some crap in the
road that caused the tire to go boom but as I was doing a search for tires on the
net I found for the most part that customer satisfaction on the GS/A's was low.
I've had them on my TJ for a year & they seem fine on the road but at the price
they want for them I will upgrade to a bigger & better tire when the tread gets thin.

Mostly road miles.
