Does anyone run these tires? I was thinking about trying these in a 31/10.50.What kind of wear can I expect? Or should I go with an A/T type tire?Mostly street ,but I dont like getting stuck when I go play offroad because of wimpy street tires.

I have a friend with tj, and another with a charokee (not close friends lol) and they both hated them, they wear super fast and loud. Andy the charokee owner switched to radial tsl's 32x10.5 an has run them for two years with half wear. those are the only two people I know that have run them.

Thanks for the input.I have a set of Firestone Destination M/T's on my TJ[dont flame me for owning a Jeep] and I really like them.Just a bit spendy at 150-160 apeice.Never been stuck with them though.May look into the TSL.

go with a regular swamper .i must of threw out 8 or so sets of them tires when i worked for tire kingdom.i installed one set and 3 months later i took it off and took it to the tire heap.waste of money ..

Well, i kind of want to try the trxus m/ts. but then again i drive a whopping 15 miles a day.


Check out summit, i think that was the cheapest i found them.

I on the other hand...... love them. I am running 33 x 12.5 on my '87 4Runner. I drive about 120 km daily, mostly on the highway. I don't find them any louder than my old BFG at's. They are great in the mud too. They don't seem to have any measurable wear in the last 3000km since I put them on. Bit of a bugger to balance though. I was very surprised at how well they work in the rain. I have no problem recommending them.

See most of the time i have heard stuff like what zombie said! Thats where i got my interest in them! Plus they look beefy!!!!!

When I was researching tires, the TrXus M/T had the most polarized reviews I'd ever seen - about half absolutely HATED them, and half couldn't have spoken more highly of them.

Zombie

That is what I found when I researched them too. Then I got a deal I couldn't refuse and like I said... I love them.

i just got a set of 38" truxus or whatever for 300 bucks they are definetly worth that but i dont know if i would choose them out of any tire i like them more than the SS on the road and superswampers are loud on the road and suck off it anyway. if i was going to choose a tire for on and off road it would be bfg m/t for sure.

back on topic, I've got a buddy on the ttora board that runs them and he said it's the best tire he's run.

The Trxus MT is one of the only mud tires that's good-ish on ice from what i've read. Other breathing this rarified air are Maxxis Bighorn and some retreads that have silica (sharp edge sand) in the tread.

Chevotta di you say the swampers suck on and off road? Have you owned these tires (radial tsl). I can WALK through holes and obsticals that my old bfg mt's would have cringed at. THE SWAMPWERS ARE 10000% better than the mt's in every catagory with the exception of wear. The tsl's are still surprising me there too, 4000km and 1/64 wear. I have run both tires on the same rig and can tell you the BFG MT's are nowhere near the overall tire the tsl is.

I've read the reviews, you either hate them or love them, for me, they're cheaper then the BFG M/T which is a big overrated IMO.. I heard a few folks had blowouts, but I'm sure they're a good tire, I just got a set of 4 for 550$ and will be picking them up next week, oh and they're 33x12.5's.. Try em..

i had them on my truck i loved them. they were great offroad even bald aired down to 10psi. i had 2 pair of them them on this truck. 31x10.5 and 33x12.5

Where did you find them for $550 in 33's?

Please let me know, cause i was going to order from summit and thats $699.55 shipped to my door! And $550 would definitly beat that price!

Thanks

*ROKTOY*

I have them, 35's and can't complain about the on road performance. They work well off road too but tend to chunk when crawling the rocks.

Craigslist, less then 200 miles on 'em

904_runner

Dang it, i can't find anything on the local craigslist!!!

I found the trxus sts for $600 brand spanking new on craigslist. But i would prefer the mts over those

Crawdad

$699 isn't too far off. I called my local offroad shop and they could order them for about $620 + tax, so that's about right.
