Outer Limits 4x4 Board

im trying to decided to get mtr's or spend the exrta money and get claws for my 45 ute. just wondering if i can get sum pointers to look out for! like wear, sizes, radial or bias and so on. ill prolli wana get 33 x 12.5's. does any1 have mtr's or claws on the 40's? what should i look out for? how much is to dear? basiclly any pointers what so ever.

radial claws..... no question

all comes down to what driving u wanna do ...

bang for buck i'd go MTRs

i didnt think claws were that much more expensive? claws. simply for sex appeal/bling factor

i got claws on my 45 as you already know, id get them for sure, i payed 290each for the exact tyre you are after, 33x12.5 radial claws, if you are going to use them as your street tyre as well i would not get the bias ply, depending on the year of your cruiser it is legal to run bias ply on road as some cruisers came with bias ply tyres on them (thats vico ruling anyway).
however they are not very nice to use on road from what ive heard,

plus you would be looking at around 800 a tyre for bias ply claws i believe,

my 2c worth

The CLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWW

For an all-rounder, go with the MT/R.

For balls out driving and little concern about noise, wear and general behaviour on road

GO THE CLAW

At last a new thread on tires that hasnt been done 3 dozen times in the last 2 weeks...



I say go the Ling Chings.

ling chings?

you'll drive everyting a claw does with an MTR ... cept mud

my claws are quiet and are very good on road, both driven on a auto locked 40 and a open 45 and never have had a problem with them, behave alot better on road than bfg AT's and hancook muddies (similar tread pattern to bfg muddies)

just my experience with claws,

I have driven with with MTRs along side an almost identical car with Bajas and would go the baja's because they do everything the MTR does on road and in the dry and so much more in the mud. I had a set of 35 claws, they were stolen with 95% tread still, I liked them so much Im buying another set

but they are no good in mud, if you want a really good cheap muddy, try the Wan Kings, BRILLIANT, better than boggers too, but 1/10210923804239409th the price

I run bias claws on my days out bush. They are great off road but getting to the tracks can be a bit dodgy, add rain to that and you really have to concerntrate let alone tram tracks in Melb. The radials would behave alot differently I'ld presume but I'ld probably go the MTRs for a more allround tyre.

claws... and learn how to search to reduce the flamage

mtrs if you wheel rock

claws if u run sum mud

Claws for sure!

Claws x3

@ Bogged

definately claws

If you want to drive a lot of mud DON'T buy the MT/Rs. They're not a mud tyre.

go the radial claws... bias are crap

mtrs go hard in the tread ive found and as said... crap in the mud.

Why not go another poll, rather than all this...

p.s. Claws

p.s. Claws

its been done about 10 times in last 2 weeks, theres no need for a poll or to ask really..

also noting that most people who get claws are mentioning looks or bling which is code for small penis syndrome.

speaking of numbers and small penis syndrome,

it was 15 people who voted claws and 2 of them mentioned looks or bling, which hardly qualifies as "most".
