Default $36.15 for a set of Maximizers... what tire?

I've been wanting a set of these for some time now, checking Ebay and Tower, always $50 plus shipping. So I decided to check the site and they have a specials section. So I got a complete set for $36.15 shipped.

Now I know, it doesn't hurt to take a little extra time out to check the manufacturer for deals.

I know the LST Claws or Mashers fit but, I was wondering which one works better on loose dirt and small rocks?

I'm leaning more towards the claws because of the pattern. I have a lot of loose dirt mounts where I crawl and mess around.

Thanks guys.

I've used the LST Claws in the mud and loose dirt with excellent results.
The Masher's(2000)work great,too.

I like my Mashers. I just have a corn field behind my house and they worked pretty good in the ruts.

I have swamp dawgs on my maximizers on my maxx and there sweet for mud/loose dirt. Not so much for crawling tho.. way too hard.

P.S. I did NOT use the rage rings they say are required for the imex tires and mine have been on for a lil over a year now with no fail. When I put them on I tried pulling them off and there was no way.

Mashers are a better compound, but the LST is way taller.

I'd do the Masher personally.
