eazy kweezy, gettin all defensive about nothing isnt gonna help you find a tire.

BFG M/T's are great tires but not very wallet friendly. but you definently get what you pay for.

Ive had those trxus sts' on every truck and jeep ive owned since i was 16 except this one yet . I LOVE them. They wear evenly not too loud, not too expensive, and they look pretty cool also. The best pick for the money i would say and technically they are made by the same company as Super Swamper i believe. No one quote me on that tho

Super Swamper Trxus....Less mileage, not too much road noise, GREAT offroad performance
ProComp Xterrains.....more mileage, road noise not too bad, good offroad performance
Cooper STT...... about same as PC Xterraine

Bro...you have never ran the TRuxus M/T if you think its too noisy and has low mileage.....the normal super swampers are low mileage, but you can get good mileage out of the Truxus M/T....a little less out of the STS...and a lot higher out of the VorTrac....


PROCOMP TIRES SUCK *****..... They have had more issues than any other tire on the market with being out of round...not staying balanced...sidewall issues....tread separation...and so on.... you really want to recommend a Piece of Crap tire to someone?

Cooper Discovery STT is the only tire cooper makes worth a SH** and they are just as expensive as Toyo and Nitto...and they are world better than procomp.....cooper has been making procomp for a while and they have been using their factory blems, and there low quality compounds to produce them..

I'd run just about anything from interco. Alot of us around he run their tires because our driving is 34% offroad or unpaved roads, 33% snow and 33% paved and highway. They work, I need new tires and i was leaning towards the Super Swamper SSR.

WOW, I think I hit a nerve. Sorry to have stepped on your toes. I have a lot of 1st hand knowledge on AT and MT tires I was just giving info that I have seen.

Actually.....Yeah I have run the Trxus. If you read the post you will see I said, "Super Swamper Trxus....Less mileage, not too much road noise, GREAT offroad performance". Meaning, You will NOT get as many miles out of these as you will with something like the Toyo's or the Cooper's or even the PC's...The road noise is not that bad...and they are GREAT offroad. Ive ran them in mud, beach sand, regular sand, snow, and on ice. I never talk about tires I have not ran myself or have 1st hand knowledge of via our hunting club/truck buddys where I have seen them perform and know the mileage out of them. I have ran many sets of SuperSwampers TSL, TSL SX, Thornbirds, Boggers (which is the only thing that will ever go on my truck from now on lol), LTB's, Trxus, and as soon as they put them out in a 33x12.5x20 Im going to run the Vortrac's on my other truck. The one I want to see is the new M16's.....If you have seen these run Id like your input.

I have ran the PC AT's (which are a good AT tire and would choose over the BFG AT anyday), the PC MT's which I got 37k on the 35's in the garage and still have 1/3 tread on them (they will out perform any tire Ive seen with similar tread pattern EXCEPT the Bridgestone Dueler MT), I also have 1st hand knowledge of the PC Xterrains which are holding up VERY well with about 12K on them with really no tread wear and perform almost as well as the Trxus.

I am sorry you dont like PC tires but I have 1st hand knowledge of at least 6 sets of them various types and they have ALL been very good tires. To each his own.
