    Who on the weekend did the same with 265's?
    if any
    Absolutely. Been a few times I have not been able to get up some steps or through ruts with my 33s when I have just watched someone on 35s go through before and after me with no worries.

    I'm doing far less damage to both vehicle and tracks with 35" tyres.

    Me too.. I did western tk in Bunyip earlier this year, for those of you that know it it can be difficult at times. I crawled up at 13psi in my 35's, didn't spin the wheels once.
    Mate on 33's had to hit it with a lot of speed, foot to the floor on his 33's, and didn't even make it halfway. More damage to truck and track.

    Yeah 35s give that slightly larger foot print which makes a massive difference on rocky sections.
