    Not on the mud or rocks only in sand.
    Next harder track like Butchers Link I will run them below 20psi.
    Was running around 20 to 24 psi and only lost traction once.

    QUOTE=bigguwesty;683493]Have you tried them down lower around 15-18 psi?
    Most tyres with heaps of side wall strength tend to stand up more..
    Was reading my mates micky T MTZ tyres, only 3 layers of poly in the walls..[/QUOTE]

    They are really good and think they are performing better than the Federals.

    Been out a few times since last post.
    They are doing what they are intended to do and can't complain about there ability.
    I have noticed that they are soft and breaking apart after heavy rocky sections.
    The centre tread has some decent chunks missing but only the tyres that have been on the back.

    So how many k's on em?
    And what do you think they'll get to?

    I found my maxis tyres soft as butter when I first got them.. but after 10 thou they really hardened up.
    I lost 3mm on the rear in the first 10 thou but the second 10 thou bearly made a mm difference..

    About 4000km
    Did rocky tk today and Bog holes, they did well on all.
    I did find them to be a bit more slippery on the clay that other tyres, but that's clay for you.
