All this talk about stickies got me worring about how and where I'm going to get my next set. So I called 4wheelparts expecting to get no for an answer but they told me that they can order non-DOT krawlers and sell them to me. I was under the impression that you either had to be sponsored or know a guy that knows a guy to get reds. Is that not the case?

Get mine from pro drivers ussually. Hey u ever try trepadors?

Tuesday at mikes there was a beat tj on a trailor with bald krawlers. And I do mean bald! Belts hangin outta the tread. Wish I took pics

I bet the 4WP made a mistake... BFG produces these in such small numbers I can't see them offering these to the general public nationwide.... unless the $$ is stupid high...

What was the cost... any mention on the 42/20 Red?

mckeddie 07-14-2011 01:11 AM

They can't sell to the public. Im pretty sure they are still back ordered last I knew. Get to know someone who can vulcanize. I have a few places to get them from if you ever get in a pinch with them (ha, I made a pun, im a god dammed comedian)

Heres the krawler page at 4wp
http://www.4wheelparts.com/Tires/BF-...00787&t_pl=831

and the comp tire page from BFGs site

http://www.bfgoodrichtires.com/bfgco...krawler-t-a-kx

Looks like the same tires to me???


Never tried treps, are they easier to get and how do they compare to krawlers?

yellowjacket 07-14-2011 10:24 AM

Better. Tread cleans out better, no sidewall cracks, closed cell construction so they don't get heavier when wet, and they make u faster, better and stronger and all the ladies love them too..

They're reds though, they're still good!. The steel belts just add traction.

Sticky tire fags... just learn how to drive.

Nuts 07-14-2011 02:17 PM

Yeah, stickies are as gay as rear steer. No need for either if you know how to drive.:rolleyes:

twiztedzuki 07-14-2011 04:30 PM

thats what i was thinkin!!

mckeddie 07-14-2011 10:53 PM

Bfg has the best sticky tire hands down. The treps though I would consider the best trail sticky. They are tough as nails. The treps price is crazy though. I seriously think my next set will be mtr's. They are affordable, and anyone can buy them, and best yet, you don't have to have them shipped. Joey picked his up in toledo. You could probably cover most of the cost of a set of goodyears by selli g your Krawlers.

carwash 07-14-2011 11:04 PM

Holy crap.... imagine if you had rear steer and stickies... you could own.

My wife keeps my testicles in her purse and doesn't allow me to wheel nearly enough to learn how to drive. Sticky tires let me look like a hero, even though I really have no clue what the hell im doing. Plus the west coast guys run them, and we all know how cool they are.

Well, I've got two sets. One set looks more like racing slicks than offroad tires and the second set actually has some tread left on them. I just got Pitbull Rockers, so they need to go.
