Outer Limits 4x4 Board

hay i just got a question going I'm seeing alot of comp trucks going over to Superswamper IROKs.... but they look by pictures have less rubber than the normal swamper .. so why are they liked?

because sheep follow other sheep

your the one with BOGGERS!

and BOGGERS are completely different to IROKs, nucklehead.

have you driven on iroks?

no and don`t intend to.

how's the view from down there?

They are a stickier/softer compound and by running a slightly shallower tread, they conform to the rocks and ruts you are travelling over better IMO.

i went with the iroks because ive owned claws for most of the zooks life, then tsl,s (never anywhere near the actual sidewall size) and now 37" iroks.


these tyres are very close to the actual measurement on the sidewall.
good soft tread too. i put them on 8" rims so they have ballooned (sp) a bit.

hopefully ill drive on them soon.

the best place to get em from..


talk to RYANO..

i am with mark on this one, got mine... cant wait to tear em up

it was a while ago now but petersens did a write up on the irocks, from memory they even did fairly well in the mud.

The lugs are not all that deep, they do however have very wide voids between them.

And Bentzook you're such a helpful individual.

the IROKs were doing quite well at the Bathurst WEROCK.....I don't think I would buy them, but peeps buy things coz they work, if there is lots of them around I would suggest they do a pretty good job.

yeah bent zook is so helpfull, always puts a positive slant on things

go hard Ryano....

i have mine too finally and they work really well...(stacked in the corner of my shed)

i think their is many different types of tyre suited to all types of driving...mine will be used on rocks mainly, we also just put a set of 36 Irocs on jasons gq shorty and they seem to be working pretty good so far...

for the price you pay they seem to be a pretty good all round tyre.. and of course for the best deals see Fourbys at Moorooka

cheers dave

I bought mine cause of all the positive feedback coming out of Pirate... The guys over there driving on rocks and all terrain type stuff were raving about them so that was all i needed. Bought them when they were still fairly new out here so paid more than most but very happy, can't wait to hit the rocks with them [ hopefully feb ]

Marcus - STFU

i got mins so that wen i put tem on my zook bentzook can tell me im a dummy and a sheep that follows other people that pu tbig tyres on little cars so they sidewalls wont flex

So you were the first to have boggers??


I Have driven on many types and brands and for an all out offroad tyre the IROK is the best i have driven on.
I chose them from a Recommendation From PETE (opw)

Me too. As this was the first set of real tires i ever brought i could only go on what the sheep had to say

I compare them to a trials bike tire soft and grippy and being a soft tire they are less likely to shred. That is my Experience with soft tires! and as for tread depth i have heard that they get grippyer the more they wear just like trials tires.If they are to deep in the tread they are more likrly to roll off the lug(lose traction)

I’ve only done 200KMs on them but that has been only off road and in the Nissan trials comp i can no longer rely on wheel slip to tell me the limit, breakages do that now with all that grip.

They are a great tire BAAAA.

So you were the first to have boggers??

We were actually, early in 1991 there was only one importer in Oz at the time. Luxtons 4x4 in Victoria were the only company at the time importing Interco tyres. These were the first seen in NSW and since then other sheep followed, naturally they`re the best.

Hey Marcus i realy hope you are comming out to the W.E.Rock finals so you can explain to the Americans how Boggers are the best tyre and how they will assist in getting you through the first layer of gravity

not only the zen god of 4wding he has now graduated to the seventh dan zen god of tyre construction and compound........

look forward to seeing you win tuff truck on 33 boggers, crawling all the way and floating effortlessly up the rocky horror on Sunday afternoon with cheezy and guts ribbing you from cheezys rock...

most people in this thread have em, but in the shed or 'will drive on em soon'...
