How are they? I know a few of you have been running them for a while now and I'm curious with them not being as wide as a tsl if they tend to dig too much. I am considering them soon in the 36" size and am hoping the review is good /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif

Thnx

No not for only sand but we do have a fair bit of it around here. I live in a very dry climate and there is more than a few spots that I've found some sand. My 33x12.5's have always done alright but it could always be better.

The Iroks just look like a much better tire to me for everything else other than that, which is why I'm looking into it.
 
Have you consittered Ground Hawg 2's ?? With thier directional tread patteren, they should do quite well in the sand, mud, ...ect. /forums/images/graemlins/thinking.gif

No I don't really like the looks of those and I don't think they would perform as well as the iroks would. Maybe in the sand but not on anything else.
 
they should do very well just air down i run 8psi in the sand /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif
 
The shoulder lug design looks awsome for sand. I think the center lugs will leave a lot to be desired. If you *sight* down a tires tread and see light through it they usually don't do so well in the sand. This is all a theory of sort as I have no first hand experience with them.
My .02 (I usually get change back so don't feel bad if you ignore the above)
 
are boggers too aggressive for sand??? mine seem to work Freakin awesome in sand...


i dont get why people think that sand is so hard to drive in...
 
well i havent been in huge areas of sand, but i have been in a few spots and my Micky Thompson Baja Belted 35/17.50/15s are about the most awesome tire i have seen in sand, i can go anywehre any time, they are great, i run about 9lbs in them, and when you get to spinnig them really fast it sounds like a tire burn out on pavement, lol i dont think they are great for anything other then sand and pavement, but i do like them, and they just look awesome on my blazer, lol
