Interco TrXus Mud Terrain
The TrXus Mud Terrain tire is Interco Tire Corporations Mud terrain tire that competes directly with other popular Mud terrain tires like the BFGoodrich MT T/A KM which attempt to give the consumer a mud terrain performance while behaving well on the street. As with the other Interco tires, the TrXus excels in their design. First the TrXus uses the three stage lug design which has proved itself impressively in not only mud but also on the rocks, in deep snow, on loose grainy terrain and on the changing wooded trails. Down the center of the TrXus are a variation on Intercos two center row design of alternating "v" shaped lugs, which incorporate sipes that allow the tire to grip not just on the rocks but better on wet roads and in icy conditions than typical mud terrain tires would. The center lugs as well as parts of the outer lugs incorporate a "stepped" design that allows better release of mud and debris for better self cleaning as the wheel rotates around through the terrain. Sidewalls are protected by a supplemental tread design that not only servers to reduce sidewall damage but also assists with finding grip. The TrXus is available in both Bias and Radial designs. The for users who are looking for a good Mud Terrain that also drive well on the road, the Radial design is the tire you will want where on road handling is better than you might expect. Sizes available up to 38" with plys ranging 6 and 8 on the Radials and 8 and 10 in the Bias Plys.
Manufacturers description of this tire:
TrXus Mud Terrain
The NEW TrXus Mud Terrain is INTERCO'S answer to the need of those who want a smooth, super quiet ride with tough, thick sidewalls with a chip and cut resistant compound. This tire has more siping than any other mud terrain on the market; which has proven to be almost magical in icy snowy conditions. These same traction features make this tire a serious rock climber.
Each TrXus Mud Terrain tire has its individual specifications and is heavier than the original equipment tires of comparable size. Many brands of tires are made from generic specifications which means there are many "brand names" coming out of a particular factory but all the tires have a common specification basic body or casing. The only difference is the mold the tire is cured in. The tires will have different tread designs but the body of the tire is common to many others of the same size but under various names.

Pros:
|
great on and off road tire, great traction,low to no steet noise.
|
|
Cons:
|
need to rotate tires every 2000-3000 miles to prevent uneven wear.
|
|
I have found this (35") tire to handle in mud, trails, sand, and rocks to be exellent. I have never had the TRXus in the snow YET. This tire has very little to no street noise and handles pretty well on the street. The on fall back is you have to rotate your tires with every oil change (which should be done anyways). I WILL BUY THIS TIRE AGAIN ONLY IN 37".

Ran a set of these on my '01 Dodge 2500
4x4 Diesel. Worked good new, maybe the first 500 miles, but they only lasted 8800 miles before they went bald. Rotating didn't help at all. Rubber way to soft for the street!

I had a set of trxus and yesterday came home form work and 45 Mins after wards i heard what i thought was a gun shot and in fact it was my tire the bead seperated form the rest of the tire and then tonight when i came home I started looking at my other tires and another one was seperating and and you could see the steel now the date on them are 2505 by they still have 7/32 of tred and my wife works with tires and has not in five years seen a tire seperate form its bead. i could have been injered or killed. I have kept the tires so that if Interco needs to see them. I do not haul or tow anything, so i know that it was not nothing i did.

Pros:
|
great on road, ice, and snow.... so so in mud
|
|
Cons:
|
need a lot of weight to balance
|

I have a set of these bad boys in 235/86R15 on my toyota pickup...
first of all let me say these tires are great for the daily driver who likes a little weekend wheeling....
These tires do extremely well on snow and ice for a MT
in the mud i have only gotten stuck once (because i was being stupid and drove through the creek and slid into a sinkhole)..... you do need a lot of tire speed to get these suckers to clean....
overall i would have to say these are great tires for the weekend wheeler... next time i think i am going to buy some TSL radials though

I paid $550 for these taken off of a dodge 1/2 ton with 300 miles on them.
They are on my '02 Z71 and 10k miles later look great and have been good on and off road.
The sidewall has withstood curbs, rocks, and tree debris. Not sure why other people have had problems. Quality control issues maybe?
They excel in snow and ice, plenty of sipes. My truck has a cam, headers, tune, so cleaning the tires in mud was a throttle stomp away. They pulled my x-cab up a muddy hill no problem.
Based on my experience I think these are a great light truck tire. No problems on road for me. So far I like them more than the Bridgestone AT's they replaced.

Pros:
|
basically a good tire
|
|
Cons:
|
horrible tread wear
|
|
if u dont count that these tires barely lasted me they do good, as a mud terrain they are a good mudterrain, i have them on a 2000 silverado and there 35x12.50r16s, they do good on the road, pretty quite, quiter then i wanted lol, and they did good off road in the mud and well in the sand, wet pavement u can take off with out spinning them but if u want to u defiantly have no problem doing it, well i do, and for going on the highway i had no problems for me in speeds of 80-90 mph, didnt stay there long but felt fairly safe doing it, only thing that i hated about these tires were tread life, was going to go full TSL or bogger but didnt cause of tread wear, well i should of, ive had these tires for almost 7 months, about 250mils a week so calculate that out, about 7k miles on them and they have about 1/4th to 1/5th tread left and i made sure i rotated them every 3k or when i change my oil and ive had them balanced twice, just wore ungodly fast, if it wast for the wear i would give 2 thumbs up, but cause of it i would suggest gettin another type of mudterrain if thats what ur lookin for, had khumo mud terrains on my other truck ( look like the procomp and bfg mudterrains) and they lasted WAY longer on my 87 chevy k5 which is heavy with same tires size, a jeep or yota might be able to get some life out of them and then they would be good for them but the wear is just bad

Pros:

Decent price, Decent in snow, Decent in rain
|
|
Cons:
|
Horrible handling on dry road, almost dangerous, terrible treadlife
|
|
I installed a set of 255/85-16 on my K5 Blazer (Dana 60 front, 10.5" 14 bolt rear) after my Jetzon Trailcutter RTs wore out. They made the truck almost undriveable on the street, regardless of air pressure. Very quiet tire, decent in snow and rain, soso in mud. They wore at least twice as fast as the Jetzon's did, and the handling was so poor it was almost dangerous.
I can't recommend them for anything, there are far better tires for the price.

I have a serious love/hate for these tires. I drive a Jeep TJ with a 4 inch lift running 33x12.50x15. Jeep is also my daily drive. Hard to find middle tire that will do both off road and city driving. But they do well in both areas. Wouldn't go so far as the best. In snow my rule of thumb is the deeper the better, as a light dusting has me all over the place. Be warned about maintaining rotation, as pavement driving melts this tire down to nothing. Learn't this the hard way as I have uneven wear. Up to 15000 miles and the tires are ready to be replaced. Also had problems with one tire separating from the bead (Same tire 3 times).
I like what they do and perform, but willing to try something else.
