Tyres from anywhere
« on: August 02, 2006, 22:15:29 »
Does anyone know where I can get some 33/12.50/15 tyres or some 33/12.50/16 wheels and tyres,there must be some out there somewhere.I wanted some grizzly claw's but they only seem to come in baby size (can get 33's but their very thin,tyre's should be big and fat).
 Help please I need to get the diff's,steering etc away from the floor.
Cheers Pete

If you want pucker 33" x 12.5 x15 MT then General Grabber are a respected brand.


Southam Tyres are the UK distributer:

255/85x16 works out roughly to 10 inches wide so is a fair bit narrower.

I can verify....
The Machos (when new) are a bit skippy on the roads due to waxy coating (great fun), but this soon wears off after a few miles :cry: . Then they are pretty damn good... even in the wet :wink:
Off-Road... they are very capable (infact nigh unstoppable), the only time you'll get stuck in mud is if your diff's hit something solid.

Machos are the best selling out of the greenway range.... Everyone ive spoke to never had any complaints :wink:

The only thing I dont like about Machos is the build quality, mine look a bit crappy at the edges and when inflated they go like a 50 p peice.  The Amazons seem to be better built, Andy H had a set and they were mint, as were Hobbits IIRC so maybe worth the extra cash.  Either way they are damn good off-road and make my BFG MT a bit of a disappointment in comparison.
