Outer Limits 4x4 Board

o.k this is to see which is the best wet tyres on rocks pleases vote and give reason

I didn't vote....cos you need to put in TSL's (not TLS's)

But I will go with the TSL's, mainly cos i run them and Rodney ran them on the buggie and every opinion will only be that of what the individual currently runs on their vehicle...so i vote TSL's

blue label 37" krawlers suck on wet rock i know this coz i run them on my buggy. Red label might be a different story.. i guess we'll know soon enough.

sticky mickeys are awesome on wet rock.

TSL's work well - ran em on my GQ ages ago.

MTR's arnt too bad... they will grip eventually when smoked up.

so are MTR's good on rock (if you have horsies)

i like my krawlers on wet rock id say better then the mtr's i had

one tire that i think is a pos on wet rocks is iroks

I know not many ppl use them or probly like them but boff luved his ground hags on the wet rock

I have no idea. My BFG M/T's get used for everything.

The claws are in the lead with 0

Tony smoked up the BFG's at Battle Of The Codes last year. That was probably teh most impressive smoke up i've ever seen in a comp

I voted other but i don't have a tyre brand sorry. i just did it to see what the votes were

xterrains FTW

I have been very impressed with MTRs on wet rock. But that is not to say that ther tyres aren't better.

Yep - Boofs Hawgs were pretty awesome on wet rock. Unfortunately, they're useless for anything else!

Had creepys 2 years ago in vic.
were un heard of back then, great grip due to soft compond, shithouse on the road due to bad crowning on a 8 inch rim.

mtrs are the best ive used on wet and dry rock cant believe you didnt add them to the list tsls are good in wet dirt

yep worn iroks struggle on wet rock

Sticky creepys are the poo on wet rock, didnt see petes tyres spin all weekend at Ozrock yea, My non stickys seemed to be Ok, If they were sliping I was doing something stupid, I did lots of stupid

Mock

does anyone know how the boggers go???

Evan...

Sticky Claws are the best i have driven on in the wet but i would say the Mtrs are not that far behind them, i can't coment on others as i hav'nt driven on them.
Sorry BFG muds suck TSL's are not to bad once really worn in.

I was so impressed with the claws in the comp spec compound at BOTC I went out and bought a set and still dont regret it. And ill be for shore getting another set.
Cheers Jamie H

my vote would have to go to goodyear mtr's

well thanks for the 69 votes and i guess mtr should have been included i didn't put boggers or simex in cause they are a soft terrain tyre.But it looks to me MICKEY is the winner

most people that voted for mickey thompsons were probally talking about the compspec ones

there is no comparison between them and regular mickey thompsons

Mickey T's I run both 37 comp spec on the buggy and on the GU 33" claws and have had most other brands and you can not beat them in my view, the claws on my GU are great in the wet on the road and rock, mud etc

After about 3 years of competitive driving in lots of different terrains, I'm yet to find any terrain where I am unhappy with the boggers - except road that is!

I have tried:
Simex JT2
Simex Extreme Treckers
Goodyear MTR
BFG Mud Terrain
BFG Krawler (Blue Label)
Mickey Thompson Baja Claws

And I'm still using the Boggers

That being said, our rockcrawler will be running Red Label BFG Krawlers. They're meant to be the poo on rock so I guess I'll find out.

All that I know about them so far is they're not cheap
