Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi, would I be right in thinking these would be a little cheaper than Centipedes? Looking at a set of 35x11.50-15LT.

Anyone have any idea on prices of these or something similar in Simex?

Ive been thinking of getting a set myself. They look pretty good and are comparatively cheap.
You can get them at Neta tyre service
6 Spiers St Northgate, QLD

i paid 270 each an ansens tyre and auto
they wear qick on the road but work well in the bush

Heard alot of good things about these tyres. but also that if you leave them in the sun, they flaten out at base and give a rough ride for the first however long till they regain shape.

Was qouted $280 fitted and balanced up here in beerwah about 3 weeks ago.

Hell of a lot cheaper then a pede

From what I hear, the 35" is actually 33", and the same for the 33", its actually somewhere around about 31". I read this somewhere on this forum, but having dial-up, its not really an option to go searching for it

Cheers, Dano.

mine measure up to 34.5 new

im actualy about to buy some for my zook
31's mesure a 30.5 so perfet
and at $180 a tire!!!
they are all cheep as chips!!!
but cheep usualy = crap

your right about the 33's

The 33s are 33s.

They are a good offroaad tire and a crap on road tire.

Excellent in mud and steep slippery stuff.

Cheers

Did a set of 35 11.5 15's last week........they took between 350 and 700 grams of weight to balance each tyre
Awsome traction tyre but crap quality....ie. off road only

another mate bought some from ansens tyres great off road but crap on road ,he has now bought some 33 a/t for the road

I ran them for a couple of comps and they are the same size (diameter) as a 35x10.5 Simex.
The tread is similar to a Centipede until you put them along side each other and then you see why the Silverstone bites so much more, why it is very well suited to some condition, very poor in other and shit onroad. In the right conditions NOTHING will keep up with it, but I think it is to speacilized to be a viable tyre. The Simex is a far better allround tyre.

I think they went a bit overboard with void myself - i.e looked at a 'pede and said - "let's give it more void - it must work better"

Void is only useful in some situations though, so it's not surprising their performance is more variable than the 'pedes.

The early batches were like this, but they were recalled and fixed. new ones are correct size.


And, Look at the tread. It is obvious that it's an offroad tyre. if you want a daily driver buy something less agressive. these are awesome offroad.

Exactly, if I had the dough I would invest in some for play, but the claws are still full of tread.

Thanks for clearing that up....I thought I was going crazy!!

They are good value and impressive but I'm eyeing off a set of the M-117 Sports for my next play tyres.

Not available in 35s but they are a radial (not bias) and an excellent tyre by all accounts.

due to the fact my 33s were on a mates truck for 3 months i ran these on road for 10 000 ks and couldnt complain about them on road (considering what they are) but you had to drive accordingly they are rough to drive on at 30 psi
since they are worn down by 30% i have found them to be better off road than when they were new

Does anyone know where to get these in Melbourne and roughly how much for a 35?

There's a few places, depends where you are.

They wear quickly on road, but is it still cheaper to buy these- a cheaper tyre more often over a more expensive tyre that lasts longer? Being on my first car and first set of tyres ive purchased for it i couldnt tell you what sort of mileage im getting from my current Dick Cepick II's.

there is a joint in langwarrin that sells them over ebay for 295 i think for a 35.11.5.15 ill be getting a set next week i hope.

Either Rudi or Hobzee

i have had a set of these for six years and they still have 80 percent tread on them awsome in the mud not to bad on rocks bloody dangerous on wet roads. i left them out in the weather for 12 months and harden the rubber off road tops on road stressfull

that is a 31'
for thoes who dont know they are ALOT MORE AGRESIVE in real life than pics..
i honistly think they look better than a simex.

just my opinion

these look pretty wild look like they would go good in mud but how about on rock i think 1 guy here said shit or average???

want33's has them and recons on slick or wet rock they hook up nicely!
pm him!

They may look better than simex but as Gwagensteve already stated they didn't put alot of thought or testing into the design IMO. If you want a pure offroad tyre then yeah it'd make sense to pick these over pedes for the price. But if like me you plan on some road km's then pedes are the go. I just bought a set of simex pedes for $225 a tyre brand new but second hand of this very forum

These tyres are a rip off of a Simex Centipede, no doubt about that but Silverstone modified the 'pede to throw mud more easily thus the bigger voids. They are designed for the Malaysian jungle challenge where conditions are very sticky and sloppy.
I can climb just about anything in the dry and outdrive Patrols, Cruisers, Land Rovers etc that are dual locked on bigger tyres in the wet.
Purplebus and Hally can attest to this.
They do scramble and slip around on wet rock but I still go further than others
I run Staun beadlocks. I deflate to 3-5psi for big rocks.
I have a Zook so not really much comparison to heavier cars, but I find them OK on the road. They are offroad tyres so drive accordingly on bitumen.
I certainly would NOT swap my 33" Extremes for any other tyre........






except maybe 35" Extremes
Jas.

Can someone recommend somewhere in Brisbane/Gold Coast/Sunshine Coast for these? I rang Neta tyres today and they said they don't get the 31's in the extreme but they have 33's for $280 a corner. I asked about the sport then and in a 31 they wanted something like $230 a tyre I think he said. I think that's pretty damn expensive when people on here are talking of getting the 31 extreme under $200 a corner. What is a 31 pede worth?
