Pro Comp Tires - any good?

Hello,
This is my first post after carefully scouring the forums in search of pro comp reviews and opinions. I am in the market for tires. Right now I have 31 BFG ATs on the yota and they are reaching the end of their 60k+ lifespan.
I saw the buy 3 get 1 deal with 4wheel parts and I wanted to see if anyone had any previous experience with pro comp. I wasn't so sure about these tires when they first came out a few years ago because I heard of some of the belts separating. If I do buy the comps I was looking at the xtreme at's. They are $150 and I can pick them up in PHX. How reliable are they as well as the tread wear and such?
I am also thinking of relpacing the bfg ATs with new ATs or the KM2. Also, how is the customer service with discount? There are a lot of them in my area. I like the lifetime balancing wooweee.
This is the first set of new tires for 'Vicky' since I bought the truck in 06 so I'm trying to make sure I think this through. The ATs have kicked butt esp cause I found a 4 inch nail stuck in my sidewall (it was lodged in from the top of the tire and sticking out a little from the sidewall) and I pulled it out with pliers thinking my tire was going to either go flat or blow up on me, but 2 years later it still holds air like a champ!
I appreciate any and all feedback. Thanks from a yotatech n00b.

I wheel with one of the guys on here, Jonnyboy. He runs procomp all terrains, seem to get the job done pretty well. He has a crap ton of miles on them too. Plus, their buy 3 get the fourth free isnt a bad deal at all.

yeah their not bad on smaller trucks but once the truck gets over a certain weight the truck seems to eat them alive, and on a second note you ever seen treadwrights? i love mentioning those tires lol go to treadwright.com i got my tires (285/70/17's) for $120 a pop and if you get 31x10.50x15's their like $80 a pop and they have the same design as bfg at/s as well as some mud terrain designs....just a thought

heres some pics of them on my dodge....

I did the buy 3 get 1 free deal on my 4runner. I got the procomp xterrains, and I love'em. I get vibration and road noise at like 5mph and 20mph, but otherwise they handle exceptionally well. I used them for a year in Los Angeles, and now I'm beating them up in New York City, and they are doing just great. I can't tell you about the winter on them yet, but they handle water on the road juuust fine
