ahem, trXus, plus the name sounds cool. Goodyear M/T's suck.

1 truxes mts
2 pj dirt grips
3 mickey thompson mtzs

6 bfg mt
7 baja claws

I had a buddy running 37" MT/Rs and was not impressed, he switched to 36" IROKs. Another friend runs the 31" Trxus M/T and really likes them. The rubber is quite soft though which is a good and bad thing, depending on how you look at it.

I myself am in a debate about 31" trxus m/ts or 31" baja claws. Both used and for very similar prices.
If anyones got any input on the claws that would be greatly appreciated.

lol,
I suppose it helps to read all the posts before I write mine!
Trxus it is then, as long as theres no major damage.

my choice was really between bfg mts and the trxus, i decided the interco. will see how they go

You can't beat an interco tire off the road, but I'm not aware of any interco tire that you can balance well.

O RLYZ?! What about the Thornbird? Thats the worst exscuse for a mud tire EVER. Other then that I vote get the interco tire.

Picked up the Trxus and ran them off road once and now I've sold my 4runner. They sure chewed good compared to what I was used to though! Who knows, I might get them back from the guy who bought my runner since he immediately pointed out that he'd need new tires to get better mileage! I told him to give me a call if he removed them and I'd take them off his hands free of charge!!!

I know, how thoughtful of me!

904_runner · 10-15-2008, 07:07 PM

okay ive put over 1000 miles on my trxus so far.

I LOVE them, they are a great tire imo, i wouldn't hesitate to buy them again.

They balanced pretty good. Well good enough after about 6oz. on on side and 5oz. on the other.

They are not very loud, imo.

they are a tough tire, ive chunked a little bit of them, but im still very impressed.

they wear quick though. QUICK. (well lets take into account i have a locker, auto locker that unlocks in turns but it still takes a bit of a toll on the tires imo)

But i love them, so ill get them again unless i learn of something else that interests me!
