Jeep Tire Buyers Guide - 4 Ply Guide
Super Swamper Irok
The Super Swamper Iroks are aggressive bias-ply tires that still provide good wet-pavement traction, thanks to a soft compound and siping in the tread. The sidewalls are durable but compliant. However, they still flat-spot badly, especially on cold mornings at low pressures. It takes a few miles to get them warmed up and round again. Like most Swampers, the large scooped lugs on the Iroks grip well on jagged rocks and dry surfaces but also move a lot of material to help forward momentum when in the soft sand and mud. The soft tread compound seems to wear a little quicker than we had expected, especially on the edges of the outer lugs, but that's the price you pay for traction. Irok tires are good for all-around off-road use as long as you don't spend too much time spinning them in sharp rocks or on the street.
