the trxus seem to be different each time you hear about em. Some guys love them and other hate them. I have heard that sometimes they are not completly round so i dont think the quality is the best. i would go for the MTZ

mtz's...

everyone loves the offroad aspect of the trxus, but HATES all other aspects...(balancing, wearing lop-sided, wearing fast, being heavy etc...)

i wouldnt go with either IMO...too pricey...

I've never owned a set of Swampers but, the word I get from everybody I've ever known that has had Swampers is that they are awesome off road but, they die quickly when driven on the street.
