not sure what kind of tyres i should get for the red zuke, am after around 33s, for rock crawling stuff but not really sure about brands and tread patterns that might be suitable or afordable.

any ideas, suggestions?

not sure about the baja claws, haven't seen anyone using them for rock crawling? no one uses simex ETs either, but mine go ok, the rubber is bit hard though i think.

there are a few buggies but they use the super sticky comp ones

rhett uses normal ones

I think MTR's are good value, they were the tire to have before all the special comp tires come along

i'll check out antts Pro Comp 35s tomorrow (not buying , just looking while i'm there). I just thinjk 35 x 12.5 is too big. Thinking more 33 x 10 or 11 wide

Pro comps aren't real good for rock crawling
Stickey mickys yep they are great!
sticky trepadors .. now they are the go

but looking around the 300 + per tyre.
we love the TSL's .. they are great now that we have grooved the big lugs so they can flex better. seem to work in mud, water, dry rock, wet rock, practically everything we have thrown at it.
I have a set of creepies here

I've heard the claws aren't that good on rocks because they don't have much in the way of hold on side angles. I'd go a set of super swampers, nice and sticky and bag well.

Claws eat dick.

MTR, TSL or LTB. If you want to go a litter bigger try the 34x10.5 LTB's.
