ok guys i had the chance to run both of these tires two separate trips to the same place! this is the perfect time to report on what i experienced when it comes time to make a decision between the two after you know your going to get a swamper!!!!!
First i have to say that they both perform very well in soggy/muddy/grassy trails...
The IROK i felt dug a little deeper in the real soft stuff and really did well going over wet rocks. I didnt need to air down and never had a problem with them not cleaning. On road..well...its a Swamper!
Now the TSL SX on the other hand did very well while getting out of ruts..better than the irok. I felt more slippage over wet rock and logs( not much, but more). This tire did not take as much fender rash as the irok for what ever reason...and in fact i rubbed my fender more w/ the TSL! On road....well again it is a Swamper so you know how loud they are!
In close I felt these are both very good tires but my vote goes to the irok which is what i am running now....but only on the grounds that they had a little bit better performance on the soft trail.
Tire sizes were as follows:
IROK.......36x13.5 r16....85% tread....$260.99
TSL SX....36x12.5 r15....80% tread....$259.99
Please let me know if you have anything to add or have had different experiences!
