Maxxis Mudzillas

Post by scotty_dee »

Hey, just wanted to know what your opinions are on Maxxis Mudzillas. Thinking about putting these in 33"s on my Hilux. Will 33x13.5x15 fit a Hilux with 2" suspension and 2" body lift? Thanks

All were pretty undersized anyway weren't they?

Are the 35s even close to 35s Joshy?

I got a set a while back as they were dam cheap. Only been out on them few times and they went well. They do however wear a lot quicker than my BFG muddies, especially when the tyres are spun. Handle well on the road and quiter than the bfg's. I would not run them as a daily drive due to the wear rate. For weekend tyres I'm happy with them.
Anything is possible, it just comes down to time and money.

Hey Scotty,

Make sure you fit them to a wide rim as these tyres will crown reallly badly in the centre of the tread when run on a rim that is too narrow at road pressures.

Seen it happen on a few vehicles that have come through the shop here.

Most people seem to be happy with them off road. For Vic wheeling they'd be a pretty good all round tyre.

cheers

Duno when they stopped making them, i bought mine in Nov last year. Heard somewhere they just cant advertise them?

Yea the width sizing is accurate just not so much the diameter.

what I meant was normally a you'd get a 33/11.5x16 in most mud tyres but in a mudzilla they are 33/13.5x16

same with the 31, they have a 31/11.5 x15, just wider than most size......you need abit of clearance for the xtra width of them.

tuff looking tyre. anyone use them for daily duties?

For 15" and 16" rims you get,

31 x 11.5
33 x 13.5
35 x 13.5
37 x 13.5

About $500.00 each for 35 x 13.5 x 15 before any haggling starts.

Cheers

That's wat the first dude I asked quoted before saying he won't be beaten on maxxis prices.

So I should go back and say I can get them for $300.00, seems pretty cheap?
