The center lugs on those are big and too close together. They don't grip like a tire with lugs that have more seperation like the pitbulls that you're obviously obessed with

i liked the pitbulls over the maxxis creepies they were not that awesome they also have very very select sizes unlike interco and pitbull. every single review for pitbulls i have read has been positive and everyone i know with a set likes them. they are a little grippier rubber as well.

The way I see it, the 3 most popular crawling tires that I've seen are bfg krawlers( km2 on steroids), iroks, and baja claws. I don't crawl nor have I used any of these 3 but seems that krawlers are amazing, iroks work well and are versatile to do mud sand and rocks in the same trip, and baja claws work good if you are running 35+ bias competition claws and don't bother trying to back up with them. Only heard good things bout pitbulls, and I know tsl's aren't bad at all or people wouldn't use them.

I see you're a web wheeler like 80% of this forum. Go try something yourself. Don't listen to a bunch of hearsay from people who haven't left their computer chairs.

Lol web wheeler I like that, mind it if I use it in the future?

Sorry that I hi jacked but I already put in my opinion on tire choices

Brandon

Edit that, I'm sorry it seems that I was off in saying I voiced my opinion because I have not done so. So many posts here it's hard to keep track... Any ways I vote that if your going for a great all around tire, but still want very good off road traction I would go with Cooper Dicover STT. That's the tire that I went with recently after wanting a but more off road capability. That choice was after researching for the past couple of year's. The tire is amazing offroad, price is a tad bit high but the on road life is worth it. Which is about 50,000 miles pluse.

I hope that info will be helpfull in your decision

I'm not a web wheeler there is plenty of rock damage on my personal vehicles to back that up. I do however flip through reviews and talk to people before purchasing anything. Right now everyone I know with pitbulls which is 3 guys in the club and tsls which is 5 or so guys in the club and the 1 guy with creepy crawlers have all pointed towards pitbull rockers. The little cherokee I have is not my main wheeler. I run a sas'd 1 ton ranger with 37s on it I kind of did a little research before getting tires.
