i saw some pitbull tires other day at local 4xshop.from what ive heard they are made by interco.the ones i looked at seemed to have bogger casing with different tread.tread almost reminded me of of those crazy toyos that come in 20s and stuff.over all it looked well built bu short.the 35 didnt look like no 35.

there's a thread on pirate right now, they look like a decent tire. kind of like a cross between an IROK, krawler and a nitto mud grappler

not a very deep tread either, wouldnt buy em unless the were super cheap, like 1/2 the cost of a LTB

94toytruck · « **Reply #12 on:** Oct 21, 2004, 03:59:42 PM »

I ran 37's for quiet some time. I sold them with my toy axles when I went tons. They are still going strong. I loved mine and regret buying Irok's when I got new tires. I didnt drive them on the street trail only but they got thrashed hard almost every weekend at PAP for almost 2 years. They have been on 2 other rigs since and both those guys love them. My next set of tires will be pitbulls again.

I got mine from OK4wd in NJ. Literally walked in and paid for them and walked out. This was a few years ago but I know they stock the common size's.

nice! i either want the pitbulls or the irocks...

skipnrocks · « **Reply #25 on:** Apr 15, 2008, 05:31:25 PM »

I know several people that have them now, in smaller (35-37in) sizes and they are comparable to irocs in the rocks better in the snow, and mud. And from what i understand they are way better for the street. I also remember a big comparison in 4wd and their results are comparible with what my buddies say.

Do you have a link, they have new search rules there that suck. Alot of the arguments agains I have read were done by people that had never used them, or even tried them.

I owed both PBR's and Irok's. the PBR's hands down kill the Irok in everything except maybe mud(I never ran mud) and they will last much longer since the tread dont fall off them in chunks.
