G'day all, having thoughts on buying a set of play tyres, looking at trepadore's, centapedes or tsl swampers in 35's / 36's, what's everyone's thoughts on these or other brands?? Cheers

Hold tight, TW mate, local bloke might be able to get some BFG Krawlers into Australia long term hopefully mate!
What’s your poison, swampy or rocky needs good bloke?
EDIT: My bad Tassie mate! Lug sludge away :-)

Please do keep in mind others mate, IMHO 15-20psi casual ‘pwessure’ will smartly driven keep most boats afloat & gripping places :-)
Next level, 35”++ wicked performance brings wubbery bead lock rimski rolloff factors into place Daz [emoji106][emoji106]

for Just Mud in a 35 you will be hard pressed to go passed a Simex ET2. If you want bigger than a 35 then the Trep is your tyre for sure. If you have Coin and want 37s the Pitbulls seem to be the flavour at the moment.
But Mud Only. in a 35? Simex gets my money for sure. If you go to a Simex ET2 in a 35 x 11.5 r16 it measures close to 36 they tell me.

Effin sexy wombat! No excuse now for a tassie west coast adventure and trip report mate!Thanks mate, we are looking at going west coast in October, but I don't fancy driving 4 hrs each way on the treps, I'll probably just stick with the old 35's [emoji106]

Beadlocks for the win. I popped 4 beads in a day running my 37 Treps at 18psi. I note they where 17s on 17x9 rims and this might have contributed but I paid $200 A rim for mechanical Beadlocks and hopefully have fixed the problem.

Went for a quick drive today, will need to balance them before next outing, nearly shook the wheel out of my hand above 70km/h [emoji3062]http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forums/images/imported/2019/08/206.jpg
