Right....So for 50 dollars more, you could have gotten 5 instead of 4 BUT and the HUGE but was Shipping.

Have these things on yet? Pics!! :twisted:
And any comparision between these and the Trxus? Which ones would be better for daily commutes and winter roads? Ive heard that the trxus are a awesome tire on the ice and snow, just wondering how the Iroks ND's compare?

Mud tires are not good at all on ice..the only thing they are somewhat decent for (outside of mudding of course) is DEEEP snow where the giant lugs act like paddles...everything else is dangerous and not advised by any tire professional...even wet pavement is not optimal for mudders IMO.

Pote maybe your should check out interco's website, The trxus are suspose to be a very good snow/ice tire due to the siping. Ive also heard that they are decent from the NSJC(nova scotia jeep club). Just curious how they compare to the ND's that's all!

details, man, we need details....how are they handling, we've had "weather" lately, so whats the scoop?

I put my BFG's back on for my everyday stuff, I'm going scouting with another club on the 27th so I'll give ya an update after that on how they do

these tires are WICKED HARD to come by so they'll have very LIMITED use ( trailrides only) untill I can find them easily without the waiting process

On a side note, Interco came out with the IROK ND for LT as a trial/test mold to see how sales would go. They put 2000 tires into production in the 245/75R16/ 235/85R16 sizes. If somebody was to look for them right now they would be pretty hard to find though they are out there. Now because of the demand for this tire, starting 2009 people will begin to see it in 4x4 mags as they are going to make it part of their lineup.
