You know me, go bogger or go home! Put a srt of 39.5x15 boggers on the bronco and call it good.

Don't think I want boggers on the trails, but I'm not sure. That's why there's a thread.

We can cut the bogger lugs to make them into more for better offroad capabilities.

The last set of tires I had on my f150 that ran on the street was a set of Iroks. They performed well in the mud, snow, ice, and trails. Heck they even had decent street manners. Just don't expect them to be the end all of a specific use tire as they were designed by Interco to be a good compromise of several types of tires in 1 package.

In the 42 inch range, the IROK or Pit Bull Rocker is a very desirable tire. They work better than any of the original TSL's in this size and are probably a better choice for mixed terrain.

I think my next set will be LTB's in the 40'' size once I get 1 tons rigged up. Pretty well priced for that sized tire too.

those pitbulls must be great tires. Everyone that has switched to them is very happy. Heck most say they won't run anything else

they came out right after i bought my tires, but, theyre gaining popularity. i thought they were a stupid gimmick when they came out. i didnt go with the iroks because they use the same compound as the bogger and i wanted a harder tire for the street.

I say go with the iroks, but get the bias ply so you have the softer compound. Everyone I've heard running these loves them. Nothing against the pitbulls, I just haven't seen them in action yet.
