Any of you guys have any feed back on these tires? My IROK's were bias ply and did not last long at all.

From the burnout pics you posted I know why. ;)

The tsl is a good mud tire, I don't know anyone running them on a newer truck like yours though. They often look narrower than a comparable size tire some reason.

Most Swampers don't last well.The Trxus M/T's apparently hold up pretty well though.The guys that I've talked with are very satisfied with them.

I just got my Quad and couldn't help but celebrate:D

Trxus M/T's huh? I'll have to see if they have them in my size. Thanks.

Tsl are a good tire. From what I find is that most people who are dissapointed in real aggressive tires is they didn't know what to expect. You will get great traction with these tires and maybe 20-25 thousand miles. I say buy what looks good and screw the mileage. BTW you will probably be limited on tires with a 16" wheel.

Seriously. I can hardly find anything in a 16". The tires that I want are all in the 17" and up bracket.

my experience with most Interco tires, is balancing............the trxus was better, but still worse than average on comparable tires. with the weight of these trucks, you will be lucky to get 25K out of them . the ride is much worse than say a BFG mud tire, and traction is good in the mud but no so in snow or on ice.

i had some tsl's bias ply on my old truck...11,000 miles. Censored
and when they went bad it wasnt that they were bald, the knobs just started falling off while i was driving down the road!! radial's shouldnt do that though. just my .02.

I had that size on an old truck... Very narrow (9" tread width), very heavy, hard to balance. Not super noisy though, and they seem to last better than most.

The 36 x 14.50 TSL RADIALS are great.... The 12.50's are extremely Narrow though!!!
