opinion on Interco Super Swamper TrXus STS

I am about to have to get a new set of tires and decided that I am going to do a 3 inch body lift as well. I was looking around at tires and really liked the Trxus sts super swampers, has anyone had these or what is your opinion about them?

they look like they wont do anything offroad good and even worse on road. if your looking for a mud tire the spacing between the lugs doesnt look like it will clean good

I LOVE the tires I have on my black truck. They're wearing super slow and were cheap compared to tires that were $200 each. After seeing how they performed in the mud I'll buy another set of these when I wear em out. They perform exactly the same in mud/clay/sand as BF Goodrich M/T tires but they're half the price. WORTH EVERY PENNY.

Look at my album for pics.

the sts's are actually a decnet tire. they obviously are not made for mud. but they do fantastic in the snow and sand. they also ride really well on the road and wear decently. the only probly with them is they need to be rotated like clock work and ur alignment be kept up. other wise they are great.

they are made for sand but will do way better on the road compared to other swampers. Just keep an eye on them and rotate them properly .

Get them, be different

good choice. all the pro off road and tires guys have told me that every since Interco reorganized a few years ago Super Swampers have taken a turn for the worse. essentially they are a junk tires ridding on the Super Swamper name.
