    I love my procomp extreme MT2s, the issue is the pro comp brand is no more, no idea what's going to happen with that tire style. So it may not be the greatest idea to buy a tire brand that could be totally gone pretty soon here.

    I'm running STT PRO. They're quiet and have good road manner. A few other guys I know run them also.

    I came across a good deal on some lightly used 42” radial Irocs in Dirtylife beadlocks. Anyone want to talk me out of or into them?

    Iroks suck offroad, so there's that. Supposedly they are a good snow wheeling tire, like in the deep mountain powder. I have yet to meet anyone that actually likes those tires that has them though.

    If they stop making/the pro comp mt2 goes away, my next set will be some nittos!!

    Although the STT pros look interesting, I'll have to wait until @Kerleyfries gets his mall crawler on the trail to see what the deal with those are though.
