jules Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 I have a set for my RRC LSE 35" x 1250, No there not as good as simex but unlike simex after a short road trip you will still have a full set of teeth left and can here your engine on the road. Most of the trucks on this vid are running them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BogMonster Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 Yup...i've got some! It's the Mudzilla's I'm interested in As Ian has said above, it is a knock off of the Baja Claw except about half the price... the sizes and even the tread depth are identical Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHO? Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 a set of creepies are going to be my next set of tyres, after seeing them at tuff truck 05 and the abuse at low pressure they got from various competitors convinced me, i was wondering when they would get here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
expat69 Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 Guys, Just to let you know that Innovation4x4 / GPC have been importing the Creepy Crawlers for quite a while now (were the 1st one in the UK I believe) and they've got them in stock. Call Barry or Steve.... they are nice & helpful chaps as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul McCleary Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 If anyone is interested, I have supplied and fitted loads of Mudzillas and Creepy Crawlers. I saw both tyres being used at Ladoga and made sure I could get my hands on them. The feedback I'm getting is that the Mudzillas work really well at 15 to 20 PSI andthey are awesome at 4 PSI. B) I've yet to hear a report on the Creepy Crawlers in deep mud, but I'm told they are awesome at the quarry style events. I've put a set of 37x12.50x16 on my C303 to be used as a tow motor and support truck for the comp car. Inflated the 35x13.50x15 Mudzillas measure 34 1/4" x 13". The 37x12.50x16 Creepy Crawlers measure 36 1/4" x 12" Piccies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonr Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 I fancy a set of mudzillas in 35" or there abouts for my next set of tyres. What sort of price can you do? What width of rim do you recommend? Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtydiesel Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Mudzilla's did seem to work well, i only saw one set of creepy crawlers though and they were on a support barge not on event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BogMonster Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 3rd photo appears to show 2 different sorts of tyre, tread is similar but not the same, which one is which and what is the other one? Mudzilla must be the one on the right by the other pics I have seen? definitely the better looking of the two IMHO by the way Paul you have a PM...

The tyre on the left in the pic is a 305x70x16 (33x12) Mickey Thompson Baja Claw Radial used as a tread comparrison. You also have PM. Paul.

BogMonster Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Hmm I prefer the Mudzillas in that case... what size is the Mudzilla on the right? 33 or 35? looks quite a bit bigger? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the tread pattern of the Baja Claw I would say that it would handle like sh*t in the wet on-road. Not a problem for a full time off road truck, but not great for a mixed use vehicle in the forever dry Falklands Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a problem for a full time off road truck, but not great for a mixed use vehicle in the forever dry Falklands These are only for occasional use as my "big set", so on road manners not the prime concern, mountaineering ability is more important on these I don't think they would last too long on road either as the tread depth is not that great so I expect the off road performance would fall off after a few thousand miles of on road use, but at the rate I use them on road they will last me for years. No intention at all of straying from the hallowed path of BFG for the everyday tyre on the Defender (265/75R16 MT's) - been there and done that and I wouldn't bother trying to run grumbly tyres as an everyday option, they are just too irritating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mettisse Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 I've got the 35" on my hybrid, love em, on and off road, used 'em in swampy conditions, they were great, long term? who knows? I had BFGs 33x12.5 loved 'em, these are better, I've got the Creepy Crawlers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
