i havent tried them yet but swampers are all really good tires; if you're planning to off road them i'd actually suggest goin with a more aggressive tread

i'm doing a solid axle swap this summer and looking in to getting these tires (35"). i was talk with a guy who has these on his cherokee (33") he said that they were great even on the road the weren't to loud and the wore really nicely and were easy to balance, also the treat self cleans well in snaw and mudd. he had a few miles on them already and there was lots of tread left on them exept the right rear. he had a bit of a heavy foot. i tink i will be picking up a set soon love the side wall on them

I have a set of the 265/75/R16 MT's about to be mounted on my stock 16x8 sport rims. These are some incredible tires. (link below to their website) I like them anyhow.

I'm lucky too because my neighbor owns a 4x4 shop and can get them dirt cheap. Yeah!

Chad has them on his Dakota, although I haven't seen him around here much lately. Here is a pic of his truck with the TrXus tires.

Those are the Truxus M/Ts , the STS tire is more of an all-terrain tire.

As far as I know Redneck went with something other than the TrXus. I have them on mine and I love them. They are louder than what I expected but I can turn the radio up and ignore them. Here are pics.

sahara scott, how many miles do you have on those tires, and how are they holding up? did you crank the torsion bars up front to get a bit of extra clearence? any effects of a 12.5 on the stock 8" rim?

I have had these tires on my truck for 10,000 miles. I have rotated them twice and don't see a bit of wear on them. The key is rotating them every 4-5 grand. The 12.5's have no problem on 8" wheels. I have my torsion bars totally cranked and I get a bit of a rub on the rear of the front fenders when I am at full extension and the suspension flexes.

Actually I've had them on the truck for 15 months now and I have driven about 12,000 miles on them. They look almost brand new. I do have them balanced and rotated every other oil change though. I haven't had any problems with the tires on the stock wheels. They don't even rub.

As for the t-bars I do have them cranked up to lift the front end about 1.5".

I have used the TrXus M/Ts for about 4 years and LOVE THEM!!!

They are surprisingly quiet on the highway considering the tread pattern.

And I just bought another set of them for my newer Dakota and love them too!!!

They grip, bite, and grab at whatever you put in front of them.
