Irok Radials

Anyone runnin them? If so how are they holding up mileage wise? Good tire for rain/snow etc? Road noise, that kinda stuff. I was thinking either Toyo or Irok and Irok only because Id like to have a 39.5 and they weigh less than the 38" Toyos...Any input?

Not even a comparison of tire to the toyo. Have a super duty with them in a 41 and maybe expect to get like 30k out of them if that. Road noise is much louder than the toyo as well. Ride quality is average on the street. They are really not meant for street but they pull great in the mud. I wouldn't have them as an everyday driver but they are still a good tire you just cant get the miles out of them. Our truck only gets about 1-2k on it each year. Balancing them is also a challenge.

^^^ 30k is pretty great milage for such an aggresive tire as iroks especially on a heavy f-250. there are only a few M/T's that will get more milage than that on our trucks.

i've got the 41s and i've had them for about 10k miles with no signs of wear on the rear two. the front two are at about half tread because i had them balanced horribly and a trip to florida pretty much just ground them down. kind of bummed about that because i'll get at least 30k out of two of them. they do great offroad and are louder than toyo's on the road. i had 38in. toyos as my last tires.

I have to make a trip from KY to TX when I get back in my truck so maybe I should go with Toyos huh lol Expensive *** tire to be replacing after 10k I figured they were better in the mud which is why I was considering them along with tire weight but 30k+ out of Toyos sounds alot better Thanks alot fellas

Toyos are amazing in the mud for what they are... Not a mud grappler or bogger, but they can handle theyre own..

lol toyos are good and last long but iroks last a pretty good while too. i was saying i'll probably get 30k miles out of my iroks. i can say they are a lot better in mud. toyos are an all terrain compared to iroks.

Thats why I said "for what they are"... I wouldnt compare Iroks to Toyos apples to apples as they are completely different tires.. But I would say if you spend more than 2/3 of your time on road go with the toyo.

yeah i agree if most of the time is on the road then the toyo's will do you great. they ride great and mine did do pretty good in mud.
