Fawken nothing is wrong them ...there the best tyre by far I have driven ...for rock etc ...mud obviously a swamper brand tyre will prob out do most ....or Simex ........
Yes I am selling a set of 37"S or trying ...but only to get some stickys and if I could afford stickys in a BFG krawler I would buy them ...the only prob with BFG is the price ......
make your own opinion mate ...like I said depend what purpose you want out of these tyres ......

Are these tyres really no good? If so whats wrong with em?
I have never driven on them, But at the OBC and the Cliffhanger there was definitely more punctures in crawlers than other typres of tyres.
Winch comps are a different game though.

bfg's are notorious for weak side walls
but i ran them on a light Zuk in 37" variety for a year or more and neva had a prob, i also got them second hand.
they balanced up real well with no weights
were a bit sketcher in the wet then my previous goodyear mtrs tho

I also abused a set for an entire season of W.E.Rock and a Superior All Terrain event which are both hard on side walls and never had a puncture.redzook wrote:bfg's are notorious for weak side walls

The difference of opinion would be due to 2500kg+ winch challange truck doin high speed V's light rock buggy at much less pace.
All the competitors I have spoken to running BF Krawlers in OBC and Cliffhanger have had the same opinion, "Good tyre while they hold air". All have had numerous puncture problems.

I think the Nitto Mud Grappler will be cheaper option.
Always wanted to try them but they were on 20's, is there an Aust distributor?SIM79 wrote:Micka wrote:I was quoted $555 last week by ARB Southside in Brisbane.

Rocket sports truck sells them but don't list any tyres on their web site and they are located in Melbourne. I have been told its cheaper to get them directly from the U.S.A.nastytroll wrote:

It cost me less getting 35s on my own from the US than it did getting 33s from someone here, even considering the sxchange rate. Although now, it will be pretty bad. I love them. gets progressivley louder over 40-50km, but i like the sound. rocks they are like glue, mud they are like glue although i wont be able to really really put them through their paces until i have the time to put my new lift in, everytime i really flex i pop my fenders off (easy fixed if i extend the bumpstops but ill just do it all proper when i put the springs and shocks in too)

We had 2 sets of Crawlers, ran for 2 seasons not only had drama's @
OBC but @ every event we did.Now running Trepadors for a season. C/hanger & 4 winch comps with not 1 hole, patch or even a leak, so not driver error or Heavy Truck & prior to Bfg's ran M/T's Claws for 1 & 1/2 seasons with no holes. Personal oppion I think there a great tyer for Sterring & traction BUT have really Shit side walls For what We use them for.
