I've found they hook to hard. It feels like stuff should break. Well a couple axles have.

They do ok in sand but wheels over easy do to the size.

The tires work really good on my 11lbs truck with 6" Crawler Innovations Double Deuce foams. Really surprised how they worked on wet and slick rock.

I'm really happy with mine so far. They seem unstoppable in the dirt. I do agree though, they hook so hard that it feels like something should break.

Tested mine in rocks, dirt and sand, very impressed with the performance, seems that they do very well in any terrain

I'd like to put these on my Wraith for trail runs. How do they do for crawling up rocks? I know they're not the ideal tire, but do they work on rocks?

Yup, they do in Nor Cal.

They do awesome on the rocks, almost too much traction. I have ran them in slick and muddy rocks as well, still getting traction. I use the CI 6" DD foams with firm outers but my truck is 14lbs. See above picture and video. I have ran them alot since those above posts. The tires wear in pretty fast, so be prepared to possibly make some foam adjustments.

I'm going to be assembling a Wraith kit after Christmas, and from what I've read and seen, the S30 Trepadors aren't going to cut it on my stomping grounds. The below pic was taken up in the woods (trying to build a sort of scale OHV park), at my in law's, where we visit from time to time. As you can probably tell from the pic, the topsoil is very loose, and in the winter it'll be especially damp, so the Mud Basher 2.2's are looking ideal.

I visited my in-law's this past weekend and went up in the woods to scope out the terrain, for a possible Wraith hill climbing course (since it's mostly all uphill). Sure enough, that soil is now very sloppy and loose, and I deem that the Mud Basher 2.2's are my best choice, so I ordered two pairs, along with some C.I. Double Deuce foams and 4.5" tuning discs. I'm hoping to get my Wraith fully assembled and take it up there in the next 2-3 weeks.

Well, it took much longer than I expected, but I was true to my word. After completing my Wraith build, I did just what I had planned, and cleared a trail, including a special hill-climbing section (beginning at 1:31. The first hill was "bricked" by my father-in-law). I might try and do more work on it, the next time we visit, but I made a serious dent this time. Good test for the RC4WD Mud Basher 2.2 Scale Tractor Tires!

Truck now is drivable and works great! I just have some little tweaks to do to the drive train, but she is ready for service.

That is awesome! What's the chassis on that truck?
