Never liked them. All the kids in school got them for their trucks and jeeps that never went trail riding. I think its the worst tire Interco ever made!

I never have liked thornturds... they look like someone fell asleep at the tire factory... and when the factory realized it, they already had too much money in them not to sell em...











And then people bought them...

The only thing there good for is sand and snow, but for the price I can think of many other tires that will out perform it in those conditions so yea they are shiaty!

i am all for making some rc tires that look like the real thing. if you seen my swamper thread, i clearly state this over and over again. but thornbuzzards. cmon man. you are talkin the worst off/on road tire ever made. i sent a ton of e-mails to different companies urging them to make some scale tsl's and i got replys saying how great of an idea they all thought it was and how well they would sell. but if i sent that same e-mail urging them to make thorns, i wouldn't have even got a reply. i might have been made fun of. just like you are now.
