i was looking at buying these too before i got my pedes. The lugs aren't as big as the pedes and are spaced slightly further apart. I think from memory that o/a diameter is measured from tread-tread, therefore you'll find they're not quite 35" as they wear.

in saying this though, i've seen in mud and i was impressed. Like someone said, save more money and get the pedes - their awesome!!

We run these Silverstone Xtreme (35x10.5x16) on our race truck and can't say enough about them.

They've got a much bigger void area between tread-blocks than a Simex and hence clear very well with a bit of wheel-spin. However, you need to be careful as they can dig big holes and get you even more bogged. For hard-packed clay tracks, they are hard to beat.

Its just a shame they aren't available in more sizes yet.

Toughnut on this board was running them at the OBC without any dramas.

They are MT117 Xtremes.

They are not listed on the website and the different sizes in the marketing brochure have been designed but not made yet.

With most of the Malaysian and Chinese Silverstone production being devoted to local OEM passenger tyres for Mitsubishi...the Australian 4wd market runs a very far behind second.

There are a few other issues going on but like usual, Silverstone make awesome tyres...they are just slow on getting new ones and different sizes into the market place.
