What tire you running?

[leadfoot067]

ive had all these tires on the same rig over that last 9 years,36 buckshots(thin sidewalls),35TXRs(poop),36 radial tsl(thin sidewall)36SXs loved them for 4 years still cut a sidewall,38.5x14.50 SXs(couldnt stand how NOT round they were otherwise worked good,39.5 boggers drove better than the 38SXs,hands down best mud tire work okay elsewhere,38x12.50 tsl bias too skinny for my fullsize worked fine in most conditions,currently running 39.5 IROKS got them used (85% tread). best rock tire ive used yet,didnt clean well at all in elbe,also didnt like climbing dry roots on the kaner this summer,unbalanced on my truck they are 95% smooth at HWY speeds they drive great on the road,took them out in the snow/ice today and im happy with the results....the SXs were prolly my favorite all around tire with the iroks 2nd....patiently waiting for the 42 SX

44 boggers **** slingers

 

[Travis1]

38x12.50 SX right now.

won't be going any bigger than that, if anything going down a size or 5. fortunately, the tires are new so I can wait out a couple years to see how that USFS tire size thing pans out, that is, if it ever comes to light.

So what tire do you run currently. Do you loike them enough to buy a second set?


I love my 38.5" tsl/sx's and would buy another set..

X3, on my 3rd set, I LUV them ! :awesomework:

 

[Boonie Buster]

36x13.5x15 IROKs on my second set, and have a set of 39.5s that are waiting to be used and abused...:cheer:

 

[GRNTACO]

Holy old threads...........

IROKs and yes my next set will be IROKs only bigger.

Well right now we run 255x75x17 BFG MT KM's or 32x10.04 for those that need the old way.
Plan on running 35x10.5x17 tires, most likely radial tires. I am thinking of BFG MT KM2's. and Rhonda wants to run some sort of swamper in bias but the same size of 35x10.5x17.
:beer:

In the early years, ran some Schwabby specials, like $90 a tire.Terrible! Then I stepped it up big time to a set of 31x10.5x15 BFG mudders. Liked them, but my wheeling wasn't very technical at the time, so no great cross-reference. They wore the best of any tire I have ever owned, though. (85k, sold them for like, $300!)
My next tire was bittersweet. 33x12.5x15 SSR. Great tire when new. As soon as you get them down into the lower tread compound...uke: Terrible! I can say, though, that even when they were completely bald, they still tanked through some soupy mud holes.
I now have a set of 35x12.5x15 MTR's. I really do love these tires. I have ran them with little to no pressure on difficult (for me ) trails, and still no holes/plugs/chunks and have never lost a bead. Great sidewall. Sticks to rocks/roots very well. Don't like them in the thick mud, though...:eeek:
My next tire will most likely be the 36 IROK. I like how they do in almost every category. A little afraid of highway use? Mileage? Those, or something like 36x12.5x17 TSL's, grooved....
I would buy another set of MTR's in a larger size/17" wheel, but too expensive!

 

[MIG'DHORSE]

I feel sorry for your diffs.

I personally run sticky 37" baja claws, well i havent run them yet, from past experience they are the best tire out IMO.

Most of us don't wheel in the dunes, so I don't think that baja claws would work well for what we do.

I like the tsl sx, or the irok, my only dislike about the irok is that they seem to wear pretty quickly.

From what I remember steve used to get around pretty good on 37 sticky claws.

I would love to have you put your money where your mouth is. When I see a Krawler or a creepy crawler go up the left side of the rockface at reiter in the snow, I'll say that tire is the best too.:flipoff:

47" cut swampers............:corn:

 

[CHOP SHOP]

38 sx tsls on the toy--
16.00 michelins (53s) on the chevy and the 5 ton:flipoff: thats 10 53s:fawkdancesmiley: :stirpot:

 

[Bronczilla]

39.5 Boggers

I would buy again if I wanted to keep that tire size. Im lookn to get some 42" IROKS.

Crazy Sean did exactly that with his IROK's & that little sami buggy he built.

I could have sworn that was the middle.......Screw it, I still think the baja claw is the best IMO.
