TSL Thornbirds?

Has anyone used Interco's Thornbirds? Just curious, since they are fairly cheap, and they looked like they are siped a bit for rain/snow/ice.

Thornbirds suck. I mean it. Unless you are a mall cruiser. Actually, they suck then too.

no, they suck more cuz they are loud, wear out quick and ride crappy

only thing they are good for is a trailer queen show truck, cus they usually dont see speeds more than 10 mph from the trailer to where they park

Yea, but jeremy posts pics of jeeps on a Ford board so he clearly doesn't know what he's talking about

Ho pointed out the reasons why they actually suck like a vietnamese protitute hungry for a sandwich.

How can you complain when they'll work for sandwiches?

Oh, and I didn't mean to insinuate that jeremy doesn't know what he's talking about. I meant to say he's insane.

get out the tire groover and then cut out the middle lugs and then they might amount to something. ever think there is a reason they are so cheap? if you go to 4 wheel parts website they have more blims and screw ups than any other tire!
