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
Cheers

going by the tires on the mog rover i'd say the irok's wear faster.

if you are worried about wear, you shouldn't be getting either of these tyres

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

I've had my 39.5" IROKs for over a year now and they still have about 98% tread left

carlton flogged his iroks
then i flogged them some more
then i turned them around
and now blakes flogging them
but seriously, they have bugger all left
too much void makes the lugs lose squareness very quickly

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
