I love special tracks they are brilliant! Unless you drive on the road in which case they are very noisy and pretty dangerous!
If you drive the truck on the road a lot I would advise something less aggressive like KL71 or Sahara/Macho tread pattern

If its primarily off road, special tracks all the way :)

Special track's for me every time.

For an off road only truck you can't beat dumper tyres though!

Some P&P don't allow them though as they can cause a lot of damage.

oh and they're NOT road legal :hahaha:

If used on road a lot I would recommend

Maxxis buckshot mudders
Maxxis bighorns
Maxxis trepador

All really good tyres and not retreads so they last longer.
