Not on their web site yet for sale, but they are called the RocX. Look like a little Hot Bodies and Carver influence. They look promising.

Starting to have almost too many tires now...lol....a good problem to have. I still have to try the Carvers and now these. I guess I should start buying cheaper beadlocks so I can have multiples sets mounted and ready to go.

Great, more stuff I gotta have. Is 5 sets of tires but only one crawler a bad thing?

Whats the compound feel like?

How do they do in wet conditions and moss covered rock? Pattern looks a little tight to me.

I believe I heard 5.5in Tall and 2in Wide. But I could be wrong. I can't wait to test these out around here.

Alls I gotta say is they better be super soft and sticky if they are gonna hold a candle to whats available now. We have plenty of shelf queen tires available from that one place

I like the siping in the closed lugs. That should help with the close spacing of the lugs....

They looked like they were hooked up when I saw them crawl.
