is it a daily driver?
i run baja claws on my shorty as a daily driver and barely wear.
and yes should run 35s, might need guards cut a lil depending on what rim you are running etc

I had 35 inch claws on my GQ with a 4 inch coil lift. They were on a cruiser offset rim and only just rubbed on the inner drivers side guard on full flex....pretty happy with that

they are a great tyre in the mud too :D

I run ET's, but have a few sets of wheels/tyres that i use for daily driving. Now, to answer your questions.....

- 35's will fit. For the keen, you can run 35's with as little as 2" of lift.

- Round, black, with big knobbly lugs. (Seriously,this is only a question YOU can answer)

- You wont know till you fit the tyres.

- OK. Feedback has been left. Or was that a question?

As bogged has said, both of these questions have been covered over and over and over. There are dedicated tyre threads now in Gen. Tech - go and read through them. There are also plenty of threads re: 35's on GQ's.

G'day,

i've got an 88 cab chassis with 35" maxxis trepadors on a 2" leafs, didn't rub until i took the sway bar out. they worked well on rocks and some mud on the long weekend couldn't fault them, i've also heard they wear well, i've only just got them so cant say myself about wear.

hope it helps
