Wouldn't waste your time with 35's there ****. The bias sticky spec is the way to go few mates had the radial and they were crap. I run procomp extreme mt's 35/12.5/15's as my dailys and touring tyres and they are awesome to say the least! They are rite up there with my 37/12.5/16 comp spec sticky creepys in all terrains I've been on. There were sweet to done a ten thou plus trip at chrissy and they wore awesome are quiet and handle great. They also out performed a few radial treps repeatedly. Very tough construction too!!
 
I have ran the 31s on hilux and loved them great in all conditions ran done high country, beachport, simpson and a few trips in otways. Never missed a beat. Then I ran the 35s on my troll and couldn't fault them other than they wore a little quick but will get another set no prob. Worked well in all conditions and great in the sand, brilliant on the road, great climbing.
 
I got 35 trepps on mine at the moment had them 3-4months its not my daily but i been to fraser LCMP and the springs. They are quite havent show any sivns of wear yet. As for off road i wont by anything else great tyre havent been let down by them.
 
35's only come in a radial, bias is 37" plus, not sure if they also make the radials in 37's but I'm pretty sure they don't though.
The 37s and 40s both come in radials or bias.
 
Have just put a set in 35' on the wagon

Payed $410 each fitted

They are very nice on the road, and very quiet at this stage. One thing I have noticed on the beach is they have a very stiff sidewalls for a radial and require to drop that extra little bit of air out of them.

Current Impressions are very good

Nice to hear! How much psi did you go down on sand?

I have km2's now but want something different when I change all mine.

$380ea fitted here in Adelaide I got quoted which is cheap

Hey mate, $380 is a good deal.... I couldn't really get away with 20psi so I drop down to my normal 15psi but even at 15 they don't tend to bag as much as a claw or bighorn.

Yeah strange! Being the same company of the big horns.

Also was reading some where (not sure if on here) that people were running them on lower street pressure for awhile to run them in so they can bag bit when wanting to run on low pressure. But yeah willing to hear how they go for the next 10K. Won't be changing over until I fit my GU diff that's getting complete overhaul, braced and all new bushes. Diff in mine now is causing camber wear on passenger side and chewing through my km2's. offset kingpins was the plan but GU diff was on the list anyways lol
 
Yeah have done a 1000km on them already running 38psi. They look under inflated at this too lol it's strange. I have thought the same about them being new and abit stiff so will see once they see abit more time on and off the road.

Best thing I did with my tires is let them down a fair bit and go for a drive on the bitumen until they're blue.

This took all the stiffness out of them at low pressures and now off road they bag out great! Just don't do it too long, you'll blow the sidewalls out.
 
Yesterday I was a mates garage and he had a brand new bias 37x12.5 17 trep, I measured the tread depth in the center of tyre as it looked very low for brand new tyre, there was only 10mm!
I was shocked there is no way that I'd buy them in that size.
 
fwiw,i picked up some new claw ttc very cheap in 35's,spewin i didnt get another set of radial treps in 35's,ttc's are as noisy as bald treps and terrible in the sand,they bag out the same as treps so i might drop down to 12psi next time n see how they go.
 
Bit of an update
I have since travelled around 6000km on these, they are a great onroad tyre, hungry in the sand and great in the mud..........

BUT..... have since done 6 beads! All running 15 and above psi.... The beads are very large but the side wall is soft as Shyte! Will not buy them again
 
You running beadlocks Gassed???

I've been running my 315 Herc's on 8" wide rims and 12psi with no dramas. 10" wide rims seem too wide IMHO

I've just order some Creepies and beadlocks so hopefully at 8spi I get the grip I want LOL
 
No beadlocks mate, would fix my problem.... But so would tyres that do what there ment to lol
 
I have had my radial treps for a few years now, I do like them ,they grip well in all terrains, I think they really shine on the rocks wet or dry and they have a strong bead. they dont really touch the road I usually change tyres in the bush

The other day I got them regrooved, the centre 2 lugs were cut in half, I dont know what changes if any it would make. But I'll see how it goes.
