Tires

[Trailabite]

Somebody school me on tires.

Are red label krawlers worth the money? Are they really like night and day difference between them and let's say Pitbulls or Irocks?

Yes, those and sticky treps and sticky mtrs grip dry rock much better. Noticeable difference to crawl obstacles others cannot. Soft and wear it get on the road, They wear fsst on red rock because it's Rock everywhere

Red labels seem to consistently be the best gripping, then treps, then others.

The red 42 on 20 is said to not be the same compound and not as sticky but they work very well and wear less

Reds are the best in pure rock. Not knocking a trep. I have had both. Reds are a lot cheaper as well.

Thread on hardliners recently about this exact subject.

KOH Backdoor Challenge this year: Treps, by a lot. Sure, good driver, perfect line, perfect rig...blah blah blah

I'm conflicted since I have some paid for 39 reds, but I drag over every pebble out there with the tons.   42 Treps are about 50% more expensive than the 39 reds, so it's hard to justify.  40 Treps are just slightly less expensive than the 42s.

I'd argue, size for size on the same vehicle, the reds only close the gap on 10% of obstacles, and we know throttle can overcome half of that.

What and where is the best deal you've seen on 42 Trep Stickies?

I found a set of 4 Krawlers Red label for $2k. 90% tread, 8 years old.

That sounded like too much money to me, so I looked around and I can get brand new set of 4 delivered to my door for $2350. Which is still a lot of money for just 4 tires lol.

42" treps are $3,000 shipped last I checked. I would stay away from 8 year old reds. The ozone makes them dry out and crack where the soft rubber meets the side wall. Low air makes that worse as well.

Interco is planning on releasing another run of sticky Trxus tires soon. I LOVED my trxus and were hands down the best rock tire I have ever owned but they did not like mud when tread got to half. Look into them, they might be cheaper.

Made a phone call this morning. The 42" is the same as the 39" and 37".
