Did those tires have good reviews for offroad use, or are you just going for it by ordering them?

I’ve been following a few YouTube Channels that have been running them and they have impressed me. Especially for the price and weight. After selling my iroks im only into this setup for $200 and will drop 15-18 pounds per corner. They are also a soft compound too

They aren’t the best mud tire and if I wheeled more mud I’d probably kept my iroks.

Shame you're getting rid of the iroks but looking forward to seeing how these perform in the snow. I'm sure you'll put them through the paces

Front fits awesome. Could’ve fit the 38’s actually. Popped the flares off to hammer and cut a little more in case the tires were taller but they aren’t much taller than the iroks. Within 1/3” overall. The rear might be to narrow and I may need some spacers. But I’ll flex test tomorrow

maybe its just me but kinda seams like those tires are to narrow for snow wheeling and went a step backwards with them vs the irocs

It depends on how they air down. My 35” truxus were skinnier that that but at 2 psi they were super long like skis instead of fat like snow shoes and worked well. The skinnier will have less resistance as well and since I’m so down on power and gearing it’s not a bad thing. I’m betting once they break in the actual ground pressure should be close. At times they will lose to the Iroks but the iroks were too much for my setup. I keep the ground clearance but gain in drive ability. Even on my wheeler I was taking my daily on stuff I should be using my wheeler for. The 15’s were a mistake. Especially anything past a 15x8.

My daughter is disappointed in the tires. Iroks were way cooler.

Can’t fault a kid for having good taste in tires lol

Just fits. I had to hammer my fresh body work on the passenger side and add 1” of bumpstop in the rear. But I’ve gained travel up front.

Damn that's tight. Those tires run close to their listed size?

With 20 psi they are 36.75 or so. I was hoping they’d be shorter. Once I stretch the rear wheelbase it’ll be a lot better but I don’t have money to deal with the rear upper a-arm this winter.

Defiantly a going to be a down grade in the snow department, but I know you'll give them hell. Like I said before, looking forward to see what they do as I have read good things about these.

That's impressively close to listed size. Pretty rare thing with tires.

Just realized this is 5 sets of tires in a row that I’ve bought and had to cut and hammer to fit. I’m seeing a pattern. Knocked the flares down a bunch but hopefully kept enough to keep mud and water out of the windows. Up front I had to build a 2” bumpstop extension for the passenger side as the iroks were using the fender.

I rolled the metal fender out for a little better coverage I’ve still got an inch or so of poke up top. Kept the back part of my flares.

Finally took a test drive and it was worth it. Way more power, quiet and smooth. It steers a lot better. I can steer on the pavement in 4wd almost as easy as 2wd with the iroks. The tires are 11.5-12 inches wide where as the iroks were closer to 14 on the 10 wide rims and I know at times they will not be as good as the iroks but I think at times these will do better too especially considering how much power it’s gained and how much better it steers.
