I bought these for the back of a 2-stroke 3wheeler and rode them for only a short time. They certainly rip-up giant chunks of mud and provide forward drive in deep mud. They do tend to find the deepest part of the rut; can't ride the sides very good. They are heavy and require lots of horsepower to spin-up in semi-soft mud. I can't speak to the longevity of the tire, I only ran them a short time. Realized that it wasn't the tire for my machine.

I put these tires on my 1998 Chevy Tahoe, they look great and perform even better. Great in the snow and wet pavement, surprisingly good on muddy trails, I didn't get into anything really soupy though. Not too loud, just a slight hum starting around 35 MPH, just to let you know they are there. Good wear also, I put about 20,000 on them so far and they are holding up very well. Great all around tire for the money. Definitely recommended.

Tires perform as claimed off road, but on the street they are terrible. I had the 10 ply 265/70/17 and they are impossible to keep balanced even with regular rotation at 3000 miles. I have always ran mud terrain tires and am used to the noise but the quiet ride I was supposed to have from these tires is a falsehood. I will be switching back to pro comp mud terrain.

Purchased 32x11.50 for my tj and these are the worst tires I ever wasted money on. Horrible in snow, deadly on ice, lousy wear. They are noisy (which I like, but they wear down fast. After 3,600 miles, most highway, they are down to about 55% and out of balance. Everytime I went mudding, I got stuck. Complete Junk. I wouldn't recomened these to my worst enemy. If you have them, be carful in the mud and extra careful in the snow.

Put them on my F-150, 33 x 12.50.


Got 38k on them so far, not bat at all.


Great on the highway, as I travel a long distance to work.


Great in wet weather conditions.


Superb in the mud, they dig well in the slop.


I live in Northern Oregon, so the conditions are always poor.

I bought this tire for my 3/4 ton Chevy, as a Daily Driver, only to last 11k.


My friends said these were the best, hate the tires, but still going to be friends


Never could get them balanced right, they bounce the truck all over, vibration @ anything over 45 m.p.h.


Took them off, mounted them on the work truck, same results.


Just threw my money away, but it's my fault, should have done more research.


Wouldn't expect that from Interco.

If you use your machine off-road you should have bought these already. You can quote me on "nothing digs like a BOGGER". It is true and then some. If you have the power and don't step into something windshield deep with a 2WD, this tire will take you home. If you drive it on the road, it will wear fast, shake your mirrors off and cause you to buy an amp for your radio just to hear it. If you want to say screw the hwy and play king of the hill...you need to buy now.

For the life of me I cannot understand why Jeep chose to outfit their Rubicons with these tires. The 245/78R16 load range E MT/R's are by far the worst offroad tire I have ever owned! If you plan to tackle a trail or pavement with any form of water on them give yourself plenty of room to stop and/or to gather momemtum, carry cables or chains and some recovery gear, cause you will loose traction! Airing them down to 12 to 15 PSI helps considerably on the wet stuff but I suggest buying "free lifetime" balancing, since the OEM wheel will spin independent of the tire. Staun's internal beadlocks would solve the problem but they are pricy at over $175 ea. per wheel plus install.
The good news: The MT/R's are approaching 30,000 miles and they are wearing very well with very little chunking. I have been religiously rotating and balancing them every 3,000 miles.


Until I can afford to replace them I have resorting to chaining up in snow, ice and deep mud. I will also try having them sipped to see if it improves their grip in the wet.


If you are just looking for a tire to crawl in sharp rocks in dry conditions, this is your tire!

I had a set of 32 x 11.5 on my t-100 ext cab 4x4 for 3 years and 40000 miles. They did fine in the mud and clay of the north GA mountains. They were only balanced once, and were not very loud.
