bmx_ican92 · 02-09-2010, 08:51 AM

jon1197 · 02-09-2010, 09:00 AM

x2 with the mudslingers! also cut them if you like they alot better IMO. i have 2.2 cut slingers and there awesome!

dreadshawn · 02-09-2010, 10:54 AM

Yet another concur for the mudslingers... Based off the venerable Super Swamper Bogger tires (best streetable mud tire EVER), you just can't go wrong.... I also agree with jon on cutting them, too. You mentioned deep, wet mud, you're gonna want extra tire lug void clearance, so cut out (with curved lexan scissors for best results) the smallest (non-siped) lugs so you just have the two bigger sized lugs left over. Should do the trick!

Jon>> Hey, you have any pics of your cut up Mudslingers? Post "em up!

same i like the rok loxs but i dunno how they do in mud.

dreadshawn · 02-10-2010, 09:48 AM

The Rok Lox have unsurpassed realism (and apparently the same in performance for a scaler tire) for sure! I have heard many good things about them, but as far a deeper slipperier mud, i dunno. I think most people stick to the rocks with those guys...

Tell us, what sort of terrain are we talking here? what type of mud and how deep? What would be your guess as to the mud/trail ratio? (i.e. 80% mud, 20% other, etc...). Officially, I suppose that getting the Loxs would be your 1st step, and if they don't perform the way you want in the mud, you can relegate them to "trail-only" status and pick up the slingers for the deeper mud.. Of course, this is assuming you already have a set of beadlock wheels to swap with?

80% mud 20% water if you step in it your whole shoe will sink just shoes maybe up to your ankels?

civichbboy · 02-10-2010, 09:54 PM

mudslingers would be the best bet

i guess but their way too small how bout the 1.55 mud slingers?

shadowrejects · 02-10-2010, 10:15 PM

mudslingers x 100

if you cant get them then the next best one is rock stompers or sand paddles

flatfender · 02-10-2010, 10:24 PM

cut slingers work great, it's what I use on the lil one.
when you want to run with the big boys get some narrowed clods or Imex single/duals.
whatever you do run make sure you are 100% waterproof aka submarinable.
seal up the tires completley.
check out the Florida section for getting nasty

flatfender · 02-10-2010, 10:42 PM

my mud zombie with Imex single/duals

flmudder's truck with single duals. another good tire is the Mk2's pictured
