Interco TrXus Mud Terrain
The TrXus Mud Terrain tire is Interco Tire Corporations Mud terrain tire that competes directly with other popular Mud terrain tires like the BFGoodrich MT T/A KM which attempt to give the consumer a mud terrain performance while behaving well on the street. As with the other Interco tires, the TrXus excels in their design. First the TrXus uses the three stage lug design which has proved itself impressively in not only mud but also on the rocks, in deep snow, on loose grainy terrain and on the changing wooded trails. Down the center of the TrXus are a variation on Intercos two center row design of alternating "v" shaped lugs, which incorporate sipes that allow the tire to grip not just on the rocks but better on wet roads and in icy conditions than typical mud terrain tires would. The center lugs as well as parts of the outer lugs incorporate a "stepped" design that allows better release of mud and debris for better self cleaning as the wheel rotates around through the terrain. Sidewalls are protected by a supplemental tread design that not only servers to reduce sidewall damage but also assists with finding grip. The TrXus is available in both Bias and Radial designs. The for users who are looking for a good Mud Terrain that also drive well on the road, the Radial design is the tire you will want where on road handling is better than you might expect. Sizes available up to 38" with plys ranging 6 and 8 on the Radials and 8 and 10 in the Bias Plys.
Manufacturers description of this tire:
TrXus Mud Terrain
The NEW TrXus Mud Terrain is INTERCO'S answer to the need of those who want a smooth, super quiet ride with tough, thick sidewalls with a chip and cut resistant compound. This tire has more siping than any other mud terrain on the market; which has proven to be almost magical in icy snowy conditions. These same traction features make this tire a serious rock climber.
Each TrXus Mud Terrain tire has its individual specifications and is heavier than the original equipment tires of comparable size. Many brands of tires are made from generic specifications which means there are many "brand names" coming out of a particular factory but all the tires have a common specification basic body or casing. The only difference is the mold the tire is cured in. The tires will have different tread designs but the body of the tire is common to many others of the same size but under various names.

your_review: Wow, I love this tire. I mainly drive on mud, wooded trails, and snowy/icy conditions. Reading some of the other reviews, I think you have to remember that you always buy a radial if you want to drive it on the street. Also, I put it on 16" rims which allowed me to get the tire in an E load rating. Makes it a little worse on the rocks, but great for mud/snow/street. This is by far the best tire I have owned.

Pros:

Off-road they do better than most radials in mud, on rocks, & on the trail
|
Cons:

Overall a good radial off-roader. Every tire is a compromise & this one is no different. It won't behave like a BFG on the street, but it'll out-perform a BFG off-road. Get these mounted by a specialty tire shop, preferably someone who has experience mounting swampers. They take a lot of weight. Don't bother using internal balancing agents; they don't work. If balanced properly these will perform just fine on-road assuming you drive your 4x4 on-road like it's a 4x4 on-road. Off-road they do better than most radials in mud, on rocks, & on the trail. Don't deflate these too much. The super-thick sidewall means they don't flex as much as a BFG and you risk losing the bead.

This is an excellent tire. I have a 1988 toyota x-cab with a set of 33's on. They have a unique look, perform awesome off-road, and they have a decent price compared to other 33's. They are wearing pretty good on pavement. The back are wearing worse than the front which i thought would be vise-versa since i havent been spinning on pavement and hardly off-road but oh well overall this tire is worth the money!

Great Mud, Snow, and Ice Traction
|
Cons:

VERY Unsafe under load
|

I have also had 2 severe sidewall blowouts with proper inflation at highway speeds. I have 33.1250.16 on an 02 Ram 2500 QC Diesel that I use often for towing. I would agree that these are great tires for lighter vehicles, but in NO way should they be used as a HD 10ply tire. It really is a shame...but I have been bitten twice trying to utilize these tires under heavy load. I am scrapping the whole set at significant cost and replacing them with an American Made tire. Beware, these are made in Mexico.

I have a set of these tires in the 35x12.5r16 on my 99 3/4ton gmc classic and these tires are perfect. I live in Maine and go to school in Nova Scotia a 600 mile trip and at highway speeds in excess of 90mph there is no wobble or worry. Fuel economy seems to be unaffected as I average 15mpg on the trip. Snow is no problem, neither is heavy rain in storm winds of 80mph. Would definitely buy another set and recomend to anyone.

Good treadwear, great in sand, mud, and trails
|
Cons:
|
minor noise
|

Ive had these tires for about 4 months and they still have about 80% of the tread left. They do great in sand, mud and trails. I dont know about snow because i live in North Carolina but i would imagine that they would do just as good. Ive never been stuck with them and doubt i ever will. I would recommend this tire to anyone who rides on the street and goes offroading.

Very quiet

Not a very good mud tire
|
|
I had a set of these, while good on the street, I'd never purchase these again, based on they aren't very good in the mud.
They clog, & won't self clean, like the SSR, or TSL.
The tread blocks are closely stacked to each other, although for mild trail & rock climbing they seem ok.
I would almost rate these as an All Terrain Tire.

ill be the first to admit these tires did ok in the mud but still not as good as i had hoped. i was under the impression that with a name like super swamper they would be alright. i guess i should have went with bogger or tsl, but what are gonna do. this expeirience has not turned me to SS altogether just on these tires. but now i have been running the kumho road venture KL71 and i couldn't be happier. its a shame SS has practically ruined me. but what do expect with high expectations. the way this tire was built up by my friends no wander i expected more than i got.
