Two months later, and I have not had any tire issues. Considering the rocky slopes that I climb, I expected to shear off some of the lugs. Hasn't happened.
I bought an air pressure gauge that measures no higher than 15psi so that I can get a better feel for tire pressure. Sometimes, I go as low as 3.5 psi.

really like my Mukluk.
