Outer Limits 4x4 Board

just wondering what sort of tyres you guys run on pajs, mine is a swb 3l v6 manual, am looking at some simexs in 32/9.5/16 et , what are the jungle trekkers like ?, i am mainly in mud and the truck is not road legal ,i need 16s cause 15s get a bit of shit between the rim and caliper and grind away, cheers

I think the simex's are a bit larger than they state. So a 32 is closer to 33. Ive got 33 x 10.5 15R BFG muddies on a Diesel SWB that barely pushes them.

I've got 33s (well, 32.8 if we're being picky) on my Paj, and it pushes them OK. For mud, if you want wheel speed to keep the tyres clean, I don't think you'll have a problem.

I had the 32x10.5 ET's on my 3.0 and it span them fine..

I now have these exact tyres on my 2.5 TDI LWB and it doesn't go so well at 110km/h up the freeway but in the rough stuff it pushes them just fine.

They actually measure up to be about 33.3" tall and about 11.5" wide so they give a bit more clearance.

stupid question of the day, what brand or make is the ET? any website links?

cheers lads

Sorry for the confusion, they are the Simex Extreme Trekker "The centipede" tyres, often called ET's or Pede's.

Them's the ones, the ET's have the 2 middle lugs, the ET2's have the 3 middle lugs.

33 ish is what i want and the simexs are like you say are bigger, has anybody tryed the jungle trekker compared to the extreme trekker , i like the look of the jt.cheers
