| 2.2 - Hyrax / ruptures / rovers???
Which is your choice for a 5.5 lb crawler? I don't go to comps, so the rules don't matter to me. I'm looking for maximum performance, looks are irrelevant. This truck is kinda halfway between a class 3 and a comp rig. I'll be going for long distance runs over mostly granite. There will be some amount of muck, leaf duff, and dirt along the way so I don't find pins as effective as lugs. I have been running white dot rovers, shaved and siped with CI DD's, but I'll need new tires soon and I'm open to other options. I would be fine to shave and sipe them, but I'm not looking to cut n shut them, if possible. I had gold KLRs, swamper sx, and a few others, but the rovers seemed a bit more effective than those in these conditions.

Ruptures are a great all around tire that also kicks ass on the rocks. They need some work but nothing crazy, there is a reinforcement around the bead on the inside that could use being removed to loosen up the carcass but they're good otherwise. I have hyrax as well and they're not terrible but they don't grip rock as well as the jconcepts. They are a great basher tire. I've had white dot rovers too but it's been a while since I sold them so I can't give an honest assessment comparing them to the others. I will say that I like the size of the hyrax and ruptures compared to them. |
