Yes, they are very hard on front tires, especially the 29" MTs with the vertical grooves. The goat heads fit in the grooves very nicely and poke a hole in the tire. I remember one time at Yakima I had to plug my fronts 4 or 5 times. After that I started taking the street tire fronts I use on my bracket car.
They aren't as hard on slicks as long as you have plenty of wear left. I don't think Beard's slicks would last too long.
They wreak havoc on scooter and bicycle tires though.
