They suffer badly from rock mining. I've never seen a tire that is this bad but at least my tires rarely, if ever see rain or moisture that could cause internal corrosion and failure.
I discovered this when I removed them for balancing.
What do you mean by rock mining? Are you referring to rocks on the trail gouging out chunks of tread?
I'm wondering the same thing. I've never heard of "rock mining" in regards to a tire, or "internal corrosion and failure" from being used in rain / moisture.
While I can't help what you have or have not heard of, I'm sure there are lots of various industry specific technical details that most of us have never heard of. In this case, I have a friend in that industry that has seen it happen and warned me about it.
