Big Brown Truck came today

ITP sent these for the bad ones I bought from Rocky Mountain.

 

Very cool.

What did you think about them on the Royal Blue Ride.

Great Les. Do you have to send the others back?

They never spun on the rocks going up the back of the Dragon and on Trail #9. Did great in the mud. We even put them in a muddy "V" grove on purpose, then climbed out of the "V". They would not slide on slick hill sides like the Big Horns did.

They sound like a great tire les.

They told me that they will probably just have me trash them.  I have not heard anything as of yet.  I will buy another STI HD wheel and mount one for the spare.  I might have the Bighorn spare that I have on the RZRS for sale, if I do that.  The tire is new, one ride, with some plugs in it.  It is mounted on a new wheel too.

Agh those Big-Horns we all used to lust after....Seems Big-Horns have gone away like the "Man-Tares" did back in the day. What were those, ITP Mud-Lite XLs??? Funny how this sport has evolved.

I'd say you'll have a spare set if tires. They let me keep mine when they replaced them and nothing was said. However some people that were getting the Roctanes replaced had to cut out the date stamp and send it back. I got lucky and sti let me keep mine tho.

Sti let m keep my Roctanes too

Glad they took care of it Les. Good looking tires, reminds me of Grim Reapers. I'd love to have a set of GRs in a 30 or 31 if they made them. The Roctanes work well in the rocks but suck in the mud   Never spin a tire hardly through the rough rocky sections.

I remember them calling the XTR's that too Jimbo. I got the spare tire from a neighbor who was riding it with 7psi in the Big Horns, riding on rocks. He now rides with 10psi. He pinched it on the rim and was going to just through it away. Good spare now.

I still think they are a great gripping tire. I almost put a set on the XP......... Just saying!

I learned that lesson years ago. Kept 10 front and 12 psi rear on the Rhino and no more flats. With the added weight of the new Teryx i'm running 12 front and 14 rear. A litle ruffer ride i'll endure for no flats.

I took off my original big horns last month with 2,905 miles with no plugs in them. Hope the ITP's can get close to that.

Dang if ITP didn't send the big brown truck to pick up the blemished ITP Blackwaters.  You would think, since they said they would call or E-Mail, if they wanted them back, that they would have.  Nothing, just show up with pick up stickers.  I called them and said it will be a week or so before I get them dismounted and the new ones remounted.  I also told them that I want reimbursed for the dismount and remount money.

Well that sucks. At least after they reimburse you you'll still have 4 new tires.
