i love the boggers everywhere but the street, but alas they are 30% tread left and will be bald by fall/winter.
so does anyone have an constructive opinions for me?
how are the iroks on the street(steve)? tread life doesnt matter to me as long as they are quieter and rounder than my current tires.

ok well im gonna have to give some dreaded " INTERNET ADVICE" here as i dont have personal experience runnin any of em. None of those tires save for the MTRs are going to have really desirable tread wear (DONT BUY THE MTRs!). Iroks are gonna do really well in most everything besides deep mud id imagine. (as we've seen) IMO dont do the swamper clones ever. youve done so damn well with boggers, my opinion is get some more boggers or run some iroks. bias if u dont care a lot about tread life, radial if you want it extended a bit. but you know all this already. and i know you like the rocks If i were to buy bias tires for a trail rig, theyd be iroks or creepy crawlers. but creepys are a damn fortune and last i heard running them on the road was basically like throwing money into a burning gasoline pit i dont know what to vote as id say you cant go wrong with at least 3 of those choices, but im pickin boggers just cuz loose hill climbs are fun too....

tsl sx man. great f-n tire. grooved and aired down ~ 8-5 psi they GRAB, one of best performing tire i have seen in our type of terrain (wet muddy rocks),
correct me if im wrong, but iroks are great tires but they come off the bead a lot if you air them down to where their supposed to be. so beadlocks are recommended. my friend blows the bead on his 36x13.5 iroks to much.....

i think im going bogger.
on jotters way (high red trail) at rausch there was an exploder on 36" tsl sx's with about 30% tread left. and my boggers have about 30% tread left and needless to say i crawled up that shit without spinning a tire and it took the explorer about 20 minutes and liberal amounts of throttle.

could be other factors besides the tires.
