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.

They were on my truck when I bought it, They had 200 miles on them when I bought the truck, I put 15k on them and had one seperate completely and went to the tire shop and bought diff brand tire, and they guy told me when I went back to pick them up that all the other 3 were starting to seperate, and I was lucky that I felt the problem with the first one before any of the others let loose together

Good off-road grip
|

Cons:

Only good for off-road use
|
|
Tires performed adequately once off-road; however getting to the off-road trails is a bit of a white knuckle ride. I found they tend to wander at highway speeds and it wasn't long before I experienced a blow out on the passenger rear. I was really disappointed with this tire, the off-road performance really wasn't good enough to justify the total loss of on-road performance and durability.

Ran these tires on my 97 lifted dakota. they are great in the mud and okay in the snow and wet pavement. the siping really helps. however, i put 12,000 miles on them and they are bald. had my truck alinged twice but the tires still wear uneven and there was nothing i could do. i will never buy this tire again or recommend them.

Like the siping. Quiet on the street. Nice looking as well.
|

Cons:
|
Would like to see them mesure more than 10" on the tread.

These tires are the best all around tire I've ever ran. They are exceptionally quiet on the street for a mud tire. They do well in the mud, but need lower tire pressure or a little tire speed to get them working. They did really well in the Northwest snowy slopes of Mt. St. Helens. And by far the stickiest mud type tire I've ever ran on ice! I had them on a lighter vehicle weighing at 3,600 lbs, and got a no joke of 55,000 miles out of them. I'll buy another set.

Good blend of off road tire that handles the pavement well also
|
|
Cons:
|
none
|

Overall, this is the best mud tire I have ever used. I have had it on two off road jeeps and on two farm trucks and they are the best hands down. The lugs clean out properly and dont fill up with soft mud like some tires i have had. For the vehicle that goes off road due to work but can play hard and still handle the pavement without too much "singing" like a lot of mud tires do this tire fits the bill. They also wear really well.

Wore too fast

I ran these in a 255/85R16 on my 2005 Xterra. They handled highway, snow, ice, mud, dirt, rocks, etc. very well. Did fine at speed and towing a trailer. Unfortunately they wore out in less than 25k miles. Not unreasonable given the price and the fact that they are a mud terrain, but I still would have liked better.

I bought these tires from Discount tire! I have a 04 Dodge Dakota, i bought 285/75/R16, my stock size is 265/75/R16 at the time they didnt make 265's, But i had about 15k miles on them and had 3 go out of round, but thanks to Discount i got 4 new tires for $175 nice, since then i put about 30k on this set and i tell ya what no tire is going to be perfect!!! They are made by Man and nothing Man makes is perfect!!! Now i have ran these tires for a while and i think they are awsome tires and recommend them to everyone i know! i work at GM building caddy's and i tell everyone how awsome they are! i was nearly stuck 1 time in the 30k mile i put on them and it was in realy deep snow up to mid bumper lol and after a little rocking i walked right through!!! Mud never put in 4wd and i had mud half of the tire and it walked right through, ice they are almost magical!!! Now since they are almost worn out they still do well in snow, Now for those who had issiue's dont put so much air into the tire i never ran tire presure over 35 pounds they were great !!! So much so i am about to buy 4 more Lord willing these will last just as long!!!!!!!!

These tires were on a 03 yota taco. Got 12K before they were so cuped from being unable to balance I had to take off. They wore VERY fast.I rotated every 2k, allignment twice and never could balance correctly. The truck was all over the road over 50mph but decent off road.... however they tend to gumb up

I bought these tires from jc whitney. They are 31-10.50-15"s on my 97 Pathfinder 4x4 3" lift. They have maybe 8500 miles on them and they are darn near racing slicks. I have had them balanced so often that the guys up at discount tire know me by name and hate to see me drive up. They take a lot of weight and are impossible to get to zero. These are the worst tires I have ever owned, Hands down. I have had the set on for maybe 8 or 9 months and have already had to replace the front left because the original was smooth. Driving through a parking lot is embarrassing, they shake my pathy so much that everything on the truck rattles! They are extremely loud at highway speeds. I have rotated every 3k with oil changes, balanced to many times to count and had my front end aligned twice. I had yet another balance done yesterday at which time they informed me that my new tire is now trash as well. Its been on the truck for less than 2 months!! They say it is cupping extremely bad. Its going to take me forever to chase down all the new rattles. I cant say enough bad about these tires!! They did perform well off road but if I were you, if you have these crappy tires, trailer you ride to the trail!! I have always driven 4x4's and have always had MT's and this is by far the worst set I have ever been cursed with. My next set will be the Hankook Dyna's My brother has a set on his f250 super duty and they have been great tires. He has put 20k on them, almost all blacktop, and has at least half tread left. If you need new tires and like to suffer and blow your money on junk, these are the tires for you! If you dont believe me just read some of the other reviews on here. This is one purchase that you will regret.

I have had a set of these tires on my truck for about 8 hours now and they shake very bad over 60mph. They take huge weights and cannot even be ballanced to zero. They are heavy as well but do ok off the road. Not recomended for everyday driver. Maybe a strictly offroader.
