DAMN!!!! :eek: Good to hear that Xkid finally sold his bumper! ;)


kinda traded, me and him made a deal on some tires and wheels, and what not, even though i might be selling the tires soon.... Found me a set of 39.5"
Iroks, the tires i was wanting :D

PS: Dont get him started on Iroks, HE(fullfootnotch) hates them, thinks they are for show rigs only LOL
 






hey, its one of those, lets put those 39.5 iroks versus my 39.5 TSLs out at the seaworld mudhole, and lets see who doesnt get stuck, and even peterson's off road said that the IROK was not a true offroad tire, that it had the offroad look but was more suitable for street, ill take a set of boggers or TSL's any day
 






that the IROK was not a true offroad tire, that it had the offroad look but was more suitable for street

Thats a load of BS cuase the irok is made outa the same compound as the bogger and that means sooooooft. Ive herd that your lucky to get 10-15k miles on the road with them...........making it a crappy road tire.

Its an awesome tire for low hp trucks(exploders and rangers) too becuase it wieghts 15lbs lighter a tire than a bogger. You have to be able to spin the crap outa a bogger to make it usefull.

just my .02
 






they said the RADIAL Irok's weren't true off-road tires, BIAS are awesome, I have a little over 10k on mine are more than half, with about 7k+ on the street, and a non-functioning locker with 5.13's in the rear 1 wheel peel all day long!!!!!!!!!!
