Interco TrXus STS All Terrain

Havent seen too many poeple running them, or talking about them, and I was thinking about puttin these on a new set of 15x8 wheels on my stock suspension.

Has anyone heard about these? Or is there a reason nobody runs them?

they are probably the best street all terrain out there... my friend jsut got them for his 85 toyota pickup..... he hualed ass past me last night a 3 am doing well over 85 ;)

his truck is plain jane on the ousdie, but it awesome, he has a motor from lc engineering that he jsut put in that costs around $4k.... he did his research and wont put garbage on his truck....
 






No reason for them.....BFG makes the best AT tire there is.

And the TrXus MT tire is more like a hybrid MT/AT tire anyway...just go with the TrXus MT. Make sure the shop you get them from will honor any balance issues with the warranty.....1 of my 5 needs 1+ POUNDS of weights.

alright this is going to turn into a very subjective opinion... bfgs are cool, but they arent all that great...... all the 10 sets of bfgs i have had sucked donkey balls in the rain, and thats muds and ats
 






every tire can suck balls and be great in different types of terrain. MTRs are good on rock, and light mud; but dont tend to work very well on dry, dusty type trails. Boggers are awesome in the mud, but suck on the road. I happen to like my BFGs but i have not taken them into any deep muck yet, so i wont speak on the matter. They have however proven themselves to me on the dry, rocky, and occasionally wet trails that i run. But thats my opinion and everyone has their own. (I also might add that i have not owned another set of a competitors brand tire, so i dont have a test subject really...)
 






the new goodyear wrangler beats out the bfg allterrian in every test....tested them myself. great offroad for an all terrian, great in the rain, and has the same durawall sidewall as the mtr.
 






The MTR? or the other normal AT (dont remember the name)
 






I had the TrXus M/Ts and they sucked. For the exact same reason as Buckshot -- they won't ever balance or stay true. Mine had horrible run out. Stick with BFG

yea i would go with some goodyear wrangler silent armor (has kevlar bands) yea they are a great tire, so are the AT/S's
 






those tires are good, my friend has em on his fullsize chevy, and the treads clean out pretty nicely. Id reccomend them plus they are quiet on road.
