my wagon tends to slide sideways a lot. That's only in really thick mud and into washouts etc.

another mate has same problem as me.

awesome forward traction, just point and shoot, but don't get too much side angles as it'll just slide sideways down the hill. They don't wear as badly as I would have thought though.

And I hope you don't mind road noise.

I have owned two sets of claws 33" and 35" on a GU and GQ. Personal i'd rather the MTZ if i was going to go mickey thompson. Claws really did nothing for me.
They weren't bad. But they weren't worth the money.
04 GU Wagon 3L TD. 33's, 3" flexy coil lift. Kicker stereo, LOUD

GQ TD4.2 Extra Cab, 6" Flexy coil lift, Pro comps, 3rd's upper and lowers, 37 boggers. Plenty more to come.

Got a set of 33's

they are great. love mud, dirt, rock.

have had 1 puncture. tile straight through the tread block.

compared to a mates set of bighorns i can play in mud in 2wd and get further than him in 4wd.

love them.

will not buy again. to agressive for what i do with the car now.

will move back to a less agressive tyre for everyday use and a more agressive tyre for playing.

well tested the claws out, the road noise isn't that bad, and they have a lot more grip than my old BFG muddies. so they'll stay on :-)
