Looking for a 35x9.5 or 10.5 mud/rock tyre

Post by want33s »

I'm on the hunt for a new set of tyres for my LWB Zook but can't find any skinny 35's.. I'd like a BFG Krawler or Interco Narrow SS or similar... Something that is good in the slop and good on rocks unlike my current Centipedes are shit on rocks especially when wet.

None of the popular brands do a skinny 35.. EG: 9.5 or 10.5".....
Can anyone recommend something in this size range?

Q78 Swamper - 35.5X10.5.

Won't work as well on slick clay as an SS (34X9) but a more versatile tyre.

They're quite big to fit, especially around the headlight bucket, but they work awfully well.

That's a 35" LTB...Not many around in Aus at the moment and last time I checked they were around the high $400s to buy....

Any swamper dealer could order them in...might take a few months to get them though.

Thanks guys but I want 15" tyres to suit the wheels and internal beadlocks I already have with 32" Centipedes fitted..
Can't justify cost of new wheels and beadlocks as well as tyres. :cry:

That Zook above with the 35's looks the goods.. Found that tyre on the Interco website..
35x12.5-15 LTB-206 Tread width is 9.8" and they are 35.2" tall.... :armsup:
Looks like I might have found my new tyres...
Now I'll call a few tyre shops and probably get told it'll take 3 months to get them. :roll:

I want something thats good in mud AND on rocks... Centipedes are GREAT in mud/clay but shit on rocks.
BOGGERS while being good in mud are also shit on rock.

The 35" LTB's do look very cool, and very narrow for what's apparently a 12.5.

Swampers love rock. I'm sure they're not a sticky comp tyre, but get the pressure right i.e LOW and you won't fault them.

I've seen a few cars with boggers and wasn't impressed at all.
