new tires ???? - broncomania - 05-08-2008
im planning on buying some new 42's this sat. probably tsl's bias ply.
ive never used iroks so im not sure if i should go that route or not.
i heard the sx or ltb would be offered in a 42 but havent seen anything yet.
comments or suggestions are welcome ....:beer:

Shame they don't make Krawlers in 42's I would go TSL's. I've heard more bad than good on the IROKs. TSL's are tried and true.

Uh oh - what bad have you heard on the IROKs?

SX's are a tough tire. Heavy but tough. I had a set of 33x15.50's that weighed more than my 36x13.50 Iroks. Biggest SX I've seen has been a 38. Choices are kinda limited in the 42.

I have heard several people that run them say they don't bite like the should. thats reallly the main bad thing I've heard. However that could be that their rigs aren't as good as the tires or they have been wheeling at tellico with 6" of water running off the trails where no tires bite. I have heard/read of some guys running them backwards with good results.
