IROK Radials

I have been looking into getting the IROK radials with my superlift 6" lift i just ordered..i decided to go with superlift after looking at a friends superlift and they seem to be pretty decent lifts...Most importantly, what is the average life expectantcy of the Iroks and how do they ride, etc. Also, where do most of you guys get them at for a competiteve price.

also can i fit a 37" IROK without rubbing on a x10 wheel

i have an early 99 f250

THanks,

NIc

From what I've seen about 12-15K miles depending on roads, driving habits, and if you have a gas or diesel. They're excellent tires, but tread life sucks. They do ride nice and are quiet for a swamper though.

I went through the same thing. I was looking at the 37 Irok, 37 STT, 37 mud grappler, and 37 Toyo, and went with the Toyos. IMO, they're the best do everything tire hands down and will get 40k miles before needing to be replaced.

6.5" RE lift. I shouldn't rub with 37's but I haven't lifted my truck yet, waiting on the tires to get here.

A friend of mine has a 2003 Dodge diesel with 33" Irok radials and they were about 50% after 6K miles.

6" BDS lift with a 2.5" hanger kit, and I rub at full lock and suspension compression. I do quite a bit of off-roading and when the suspension cycles my tires rub the fender. I run 35 x 14.5 swamper ssr's. Had 38's, and those rubbed worse.
Oh yeah, I have recieved some great mileage out of the SSR'S. Almost 30K miles, and they are still looking pretty good. Might get another 7 to 8k out of them. Not too bad for such an aggressive tire.
Just a note, they do get a little loud when they wear down.

I have had no problems with the lift I didn't measure before or after the lift so I don't know the actual "lift" achieved. The lift I got was the basic coil w/ radias brackets upfront and spring pack in the rear. I didn't want a 6" block for the rear.

Its alot more rough than stock. Just about everyone who rides in the back seat complains. It was worse when the tire pressure was at 65psi(the shop did it) but since I have dropped it down to 50 and it rides better
