interesting tires...
Does anyone have a picture of a superduty with the trXus tires on them by interco? I saw some (veryoversized) on a jeep and wasnt impressed by their looks, but someone said they look sweet on a SD. Thanks in advance

Are you talking about the trXus STS or the MT?
If it's the STS (which I think it probably is):
8" lift and 38" STS
Close up of wheel
And Overkill has a set of 44s on his X:

Look good.....but how do you plan to use the truck??
I've heard that they perform well on the street, quiet, balance fairly easy....one bad thing I have heard from some people is that "they suck in the rain."

hmm.. well i will use it pretty much just on-road. I have a 8" superlift system on order, so am just browsing dif. tires. I will use it occasionally off raod, when i go hunting or down to the beach- but mostly just on-road. Anyone have experience with them in the rain? They look as if the tread would be good for a road tire, not too too aggresive

My opinion of the STS's...show truck only. No discernable tread pattern, nothing even resembling siping. I would guess it would be like driving a bar of soap across a shower floor....tractionless. Sand is the only use I can even imagine for those things, that and rolling on and off the trailer.
A buddy of mine has 38" Parnelli Jones dirt grips on his. he says they are marginal at best in the deep mud, but suprisingly good on wet roads.
