TSLs Vs IROKs what wears faster?

Post by justinshere »

Lookin for some new rubber, but i have to drive on the road a little to get to the bush.
So which out of these 2 would last longer if run on the road a little?
TSL and IROKs both 39.5

I like many, cant afford to have a tow car and a 'offroad only' truck.
I only live about 15 mins from the bush

do you seriously daily drive/street a car that can fit a tyre that is almost 41" tall (irok)???

if you do i think tyre choice is the least of your worries :!:
