Yeah I got a set of these for my 17th birthday, 33 by 12.50, Its the only tire i think i'm ever going to use in my life for my 86 chevy custom deluxe, it looks completely bad ass, and performs just as good. What the cool think was the guys would come up to me ask me about these tires and they usually had lady friends with them, if you know what i mean. I recommend these tires 110%. Enjoy Boys.

GREAT TIRE!!!!!

NOTHING BUT GOOD TO SAY!!!!!

O.k., I have to get something off my chest. All you people who keep bashing the Thornbird are novice mud enthusiasts fr sure!! The key to using the Interco TSL Thornbird in mud applications is quite simple. You let your tires down to between 20-15 psi, before entering the mud. This allows the massive side lugs to roll downward enough that they can contact whatever it is you are attempting to cross. Less air pressure also allows the tires to flex more, thus improving tire bite capabilities. I went from 34x10.50x16 Swamper LTBs, to 35x12.50x16 TSL Thornbirds. The LTB is a great tire for the money if you want raw pulling power! I went through some deep South Texas gumbo fields in 2 wheel with them, and my friends where amazed. The draw back is that they wear out very quickly, while the Thornbird seems to last a while. I will say it one last time. BLEED TIRE PRESSURE DOWN(20 to 15 psi)BEFORE ENTERING THE MUD, SAND, SNOW, OR WHATEVER THE HELL IT IS YOU WANT TO CROSS, AND THESE TIRES WILL GET YOU THERE AND BACK AGAIN!!!!!!!!

Harsh Ride

I have had these (38x14.50R16) on my truck for about 25k miles. They are a little harsh for everyday street driving and are pretty good off-road. I mainly go in mud and they perform pretty good.

To understand this tire you need to understand what type of driving it accomodates. I really like this tire, I have had both swamper style mud tires, as well as boring All Terrain tires, and neither ended up being what I needed. I drive my jeep to work, and school, on the street allot, and on the weekends I beat it up in the mud. So I needed a tire that could do both. The swampers I had were terrible on the road, and the A/T's I had were terrible in the mud. the Thornbirds are pretty decent in the mud and suprisingly smooth on the highway. But they don't mud like a bogger or street like an A/T. Basically if all you do is mud, then get boggers, and if all you do is street get A/T's. But I off road with my "daily driver" like many do, and I would reccomend this tire to anyone else who does the same

I have a set of 31"x 12.5"x 15" for my 1992 Jeep Cherokee and they sure turn heads in town. I have yet to get stuck in the mud and let me tell you how easy it is to cover your truck in seconds with the lugs throwing mud everywhere. They are very loud on the street and need minimal psi. I run them at 15 psi at all times for a little smoother ride, I also rotate them every 5000km or so. I have the bi-supply not the TSL so they have huge spaces between the tred and mud does not stick to the tire at all. I've had no problems in snow up to 24" deep, plowing snow up onto the hood. Overall the best off road tire I have ever owned for cost.

Some time ago I put a set of 10 x 31 on a bobtail Bronco with 3" lift & a posi rear diff;
Once while EB on I-80 in Wyoming, a September blizzard closed the road,
traffic was backed up 20+ miles, & the WB traffic was stopped 30 or more miles to the east; I nosed the Bronco over into the left lane, locked in the hubs, & cut thru a foot or deeper snow in the center median. then headed WB to SB two lane & I70, arriving in Boulder Colorado about 7 hours late.

I own a 1998 ford ranger ext. cab 4WD. I purchased a set of 31x11.00x15 thornbirds for my truck. I do mainly on road driving and go off roading on the weekend. These tires are awsome i have around 4 thousand miles on them and see NO wearing at all. They also get great grip in the florida mud. They also are great in all other types of terrians. I have only been stuck 1 time with these tires and that was b/c of my 4 wheel drive wouldn't lock in I would have been fine if it would have worked. All in all these tires are great all around. The only con is that they are extremly loud on the road but if you like loud music like i do you won't even hear them.

This tire gets 50 / 50 responce from people you talk to and ask about to tire. Think back to some one that has told you this tire sucked, think if they have ever owned a set, probobly not.
This tire is amazing in the mud and dirt. If you plan on creeping through the mud don't bother, you need tire spin to clean the tread.
Smaller tires do not do well in the sand due to ground clearance.

These tires look nasty as hell. Unfortunately, they dont perform as well as they look. They didnt do as well as i figured in the mud as i had 2 get dragged out several times. On the street, the tires bubble up in the middle so u are riding on the width of about a motorcycle tire. I never tested them in any other places as im a true bogger @ heart.

Got a pair of these for my jeep for realy cheap with about 70% tread left and they where by far the worst tire i ever ran. They packed with mud real quick and didtn clean out at all. I was better of using my bfg at's (winter tires) to go four wheeling.

for me they worked great in the mud and snow. They make any truck or suv look bad ass. I would always air them down a little bit before off roading and I think that is the key. I have nothing bad to say about the thornbirds.

they looked bad ass!! sounded great i bout them slighty used for 30 a tire
|

had them on a 2wd silverado and seemed like they just sunk in anything they touched. always just bogged down
|
|
these tires look awesome! that is just about all they are good for. in sand the lugs just bogged down. and the more you spin the more you sunk. in mud they were the same. the lugs didnt help very much. but if you are looking to make your truck look good without much offroad use go for it. try to find cheap used ones

I had them for around 7-9 months and they were a good tire in my opinion. Had them on a F-150 and they threw baseball sized chucks frow the side lugs. They were worn bald when i got them and still got enough traction to pull a S-10 blazer out bottomed out completly in a ditch with no tires touching and I was in atleast 4 inces of georgia red clay myself.

LET SOME FREAKING TIRE PRESSURE OUT AND GIVE IT HELL! Everybody says that these tires dont grab. These tires are meant for both on and off road. The lugs don't touch at normal tire pressure for a smoothe ride on the road. They'll do fine in deep mud or snow at normal psi but if it isnt that deep then let out some pressure and give it hell. Don't just cruise. Nail the gas and they'll clean just fine!
