My experience with the Maxxis was about the same as yours. Got about 55000 - 60000 from the set of AT's that I had. Overall I found them ok, albeit a bit soft in the sidewalls.
having said that, they did get me across the Gunbarrel, GCR and various other
places, albeit with a number of punctures which were plugged and lasted ok.
Given the price of the Maxxis vs BFG or whatever else you might be looking at, considering that from my last set of BFG, prior to the Maxxis I got 112,000 I only ran one set of the Maxxis and then went back to the BFG's. Better bang for the $ in my case.
OI know that didnt really answer your question, but just thought I would throw my 2c in :)

I was talked out of the Maxis for my Paj, and was talked in to Yokahama Geo landers for an extra 20 bucks a piece. I think a wise move.
Cheers.

I like the BFG out here - yeah the ride might be firmer but you can trust them in the rough, less chance of getting staked.

I run the Maxxi Bravos and they do a good job - Have not had a
puncture to date First set went to around the 70k.
Do not notice any road noise with these tyres and they grip
well in wet weather.
Cheers Tony
