MUDZILLAS 35x13.5 ANYONE USED EM????????

[whythef@#!not]

gday fellas,

was down cruiser on the weekend and seen these tyres, looked the part and like the idea of the 13.5 wide as ive got 10" rims.

But as the name says are they really suited just for mud or suitable for other applications too?????

Im mainly doin stuff like at landcruiser hills, dirt and rocks and a bit of beach, try to avoid mud if i can, would you rate these tyres or better putting my money into another tyre??????

cheers

probably need to compare against MT Claws in terms of price etc.....

I had a set of 33x13.5 (pretty sure they were 13.5) on my MK wagon, and didn't like them. Very noisy, compound was a little on the hard side, and i personally didn't think they had big/wide enough linear grooves on the tread blocks.

Nice side-biters though....

what car did you see these tyres on out cruiser park? i was there on the weekend and i have 35x13.5 mudzilla on 16X10 rims on my shorty partol. i havnt had any troubles with them as yet and they grip well on rocks and loose stuff cause they are a pretty soft compound rubber.
havnt tried them out in the mud yet but im very happy with how they have proformed so far.

i paid $340 a tyre fitted and balanced

ive got a set of a fj45 landcruiser and love them tho ive gone from 31" muddies so really ive got nothing to compare them against

mine are on a 8" wide rim not really suitable just means the centers will wear quite quickly its not my daily driver so i never swap tyres

noisy WHAT yep incredibly noisy on road

Off topic, but thats some nice flex you've got going there stan.

thanks mate yer i love the look of the wider tires, they are just my offroad tyres as i have 33's for the road, i got them from bob jane t-mart in maroochydore, yer i price to suit the 15" rim was $320 a tyre.
usually run them from 15-17psi

i put a set on my navara couple weeks ago. So far so good. Noisey on road but thats to be expected. Go well on everything so far. Ive also only got them on a 8 inch wide rim.

[khany427]

ive got a set. never used them though as im still building my cruiser!

[Wilba]

Had a set of 35 mudzilla on 10in rims hook up ok for hills hung on rims well at low pressure.On road they were only on the road when they were crossing it and just dangerous in the wet on blacktop.like old mate said they seem very hard.If you arn`t doing big ks should be ok mate just thaught i`d tell you about the wet road thing.Did i mention they were slippery on wet tarmac?

[gir80]

a mate had a set n they were absolutly crap, come no where near a good as the claws and only lasted about 3 months

[dizzy]

Ive got 35x13.5x15 on 15x10 and they go good in all areas that ive had them so far I run around 15 psi but the noise on road with the windows down is unreal my wife can hear me coming home from arond 2 blocks away lol..

no bead problems running em on 15psi, not to fussed about the noise will be a everyday tyre but only drive it to work and back. pretty keen to get a set just worried about the life i will get out of em, gonna try and compare to similar tyres for wear, been looking at trepadores too.

I had a set on my work truck and hated them. They wore out quicker then any other tyre ive ever had, noisier and worse on road then swampers or simex's. It used to lock the front wheels up in the wet. Worst tyre ive had.

[adriand82]

Silverstone make a Simex copy don't they? Are they reasonably priced? Good lookin tread pattern i thought.

[tuff6ty]

had them on my 60 good in the mud but dont think about stoping in a hurry in the wet on the road

[pcman]

i dont know what everones issues with them on wet bitumen is i havnt had any real issues

yeah if you have the power you can spin them of the line easily but under braking ive never had any issues but maby i drive a fj45 i dont expect it to stopin a hurry so im used to breaking early

[cooki_monsta]

i have had both, personally i thought the maxxis gripped better, and handled slightly better on road, it seems to be slightly softer then the micky tyre, how ever my next set will probably be 36" jt2's i quite like them

[Eddy351]

Im running the 33's and have had them on for about 2 weeks now. No problems in the wet at all, but then again i dont drive my 4wd like a racecar. Havnt done any major offroad yet except mud which they seem to handle easily. Fairly noisy but that doesnt worry me.

[crankycruiser]

I had a set of 35x13.5's i thought they were a pretty good tyre EXCEPT they measured more like 33.9 and wore VERY fast.. and i didnt drive them on the black top much. they were my second set of tyres
