OEM Tire Lugs

[Charlie Mike]

So I noticed that three out of five tires have portions of the lugs missing or partially torn. They're the OEM sasquatch tires with less than 7,600 miles on them. A five way tire rotation was completed at 5,000 miles along my first oil change. So far I've been to Uwharrie four times, aired down to 18 psi.

These tires seem pretty soft, but is this normal?

I can't imagine what they are going to look like after 25,000 with more trips to places like Uwharrie and Windrock.

Yup.
But they sure are lite!

Hmmm, interesting. Mine are OEM SAS as well, +11,000 miles, with a good 40-50% of that off-road in Southern Utah, on dirt roads and trails like Tocquerville and Gunlock. Not exactly rock gardens, but spiky and rough. I air down to 18-20. Haven’t lost any lugs yet. A little softening around some sipes, but not too bad.

This will give you and idea of the terrain I'm driving in.

Just gave mine a once over. All ok
The sharp rocks I put my OEMs over are usually not large and fixed like those in your photos, but smaller and can roll and give a bit.
maybe
