Default Show your iroks!

Hey all, I'm really wanting to swap out my BFG's here pretty soon for something bigger. I found out pretty quickly that there aren't a whole lot of manufacturers that make 37's to fit a 15x10" rim size...iroks, however, do. So I'm just curious to see these on our jeeps, so post 'em up!. If you have/had them, how did they perform?

They will definitely last longer. Both good tires though

Yeah, they're just really heavy aren't they? And they're also a bit wider than the iroks...more likely to rub.

Only a half-inch wider. As for the weight...yes - they are heavier, but I'm guessing that they'll wear a whole lot better. Most talk about Interco tires is that they run great, but that they have a soft rubber compound, so tend to wear quickly. So it'll probably just matter if you do a lot of DD driving, or run primarily a trail-only rig.

These are actually 37x12.5 r15. So it'd be 2 inches wider. But thanks a lot for bringing the soft rubber to my attention. Gonna have to do some more research as this is my DD. anybody got some pics??
