5.5" tall crawler tires

[Stan3535]

Hi there,
I am looking to buy a set of 5.5" crawler tires for my Wraith. The only ones I see out there for a 2.2 wheel are the Ripsaws and the Hot Boddies Rover Crawler and the TSL SX 's. i really love Mud Slingers but dont see them 5.5" tall.Does anyone know of another brand that is 5.5" tall?
Also looking to buy some slightly used if you have any?
Thanks

These are larger tires than the Proline TSL's and Rok Lox. Both of these are around 5.75" tall but look pretty badass on a Wraith.

And the search button is an even better friend And you shouldn't be asking to buy tires here. Put an ad up in the wanted section.

Ya your right. Those Mickey Thompsons look pretty bad ass. So I am stuck between the Mickey Thompson Baja Claws or the newer soft compound Rockcrushers. I read reviews on the Rockcrushers having too hard of a compuond on the original but have not heard much on the soft compound?
Anyone have any opinions on these tires for a Wraith? Are the soft Crushers just a good looking tire lacking performance?
Thanks

I just looked, where are you getting that the crushers are in the new x2 ss compound?

Here is a link to the soft compound crushers

Huh I think that's when they came out with the x3 compound. I really doubt it's the new x2. Pretty sure there would've been something on rc4wd's site. But if you really want them, they're cheaper at rc4wd's site.

I have the mt claws on my wraith and they work great. I cut the large lugs into three small lugs and the smaller lugs in half. Then mount them backwards and you will be set. When you mount them backwards they just grab everything and pull your wraith up hills. My wraith is in the picture area check it out.

Just checked out your "4 Locker" Wraith. Pretty sweet. Since you are talking about cutting tires.... Check out this link of some cutting on the Crushers. Go about half way down the page. They are the firmer rubber but if you were to cut the soft ones the same?

But I think I am slowly leaning towards the Mt Claws. I like the 5.75" height but just wish they had more sidewall tread.

Try out a set of Rock Grabbers, they look like a great mud tire, and i know they are awesome on the rocks.

Those looked nice. I like the claws mounted backwards because they just claw themselves up hills. It would be nice to see how those others work but the shape of the claws just pull themselves up.

Go ripsaws, they are great, my mate runs them and they go everywhere
