They look nice! Only problem is Claremont (Simex N.S.W.) don't import them :cry: That means whoever does can charge what they like :cry:

BTW what were they worth?

What ply are the simex's?

cause it worries me that the MTR's are still 3 with a big big sidewall

cost is $440 RRP - if you pay more than that you are getting ripped off.

6 ply and thick as you like :)

green thing doesn't come with them, you need to build one, choose any color you like :finger:

Couldn't go the MTR's down here in mexico. they plain suck in the mud in comparison.

The other tyres are 35x10.5x15 for size comparison.

The centre block looks like it doesn't have enough void between lugs and may fill up easily, but I would imagine the outer lugs will still be clearing which is where it really counts in deep mud anyways.

if the centre tread sucks - I will cut some of them out :D

Should have them on the jeep tomorrow, then a drive in a week or two.
got some other suspension and drivetrain things to fix first....

The 36s were certainly the hot ticket at the Xtreme Winch Challenge Rd 3!

The Jeep is gonna look real fat with those boots.

What width rim are you going to run?

running 15x8 beadlocks, but they end up at about 15x9 if you take into account the beadlock ring :)
