Post by: ammmotroop on January 21, 2004, 10:04:00 pm

has anyone used interco's super swamper thornbird tires.
I am interested in using them but i want to know how they perform. i already know that the are noisy on road and that they flat spot in the cold because they are bias ply and i dont care about that. i just want to know how they perform overall. i want to get a 35x12.50r15 size:rolleyes

As an off-road tire they are horrible.  They do not clean well in mud or grip that well in rocks and such.  On road it sounds like you already know their characteristics: bais tire, loud, hard, etc.  If your looking for a show truck tire i think that they are great, but for a DD or off-roader no way.
