Pretty nifty! I have no places to go off-roading in NC (I live like 20 min. from you), but I used to go to school in NY thats where I did all my offroading.

that looks like fun... now you want to make me go wheelin.

But we all KNOW thats not gonna happen agian for awhile

I noticed the tires werent cleaning very well though. My TSL's clean just sitting there the mud just slides out.

Maybe its that mud. it kinda reminds me of the sticky clay mud we had up in Alabama around out hunting camp. and that stuff would stick to ANYTHING

yea that is a small hole I wish we had some decent trails in this area but there arent really that many where your not on someone else land so I`ll take what I`ve got right now, that is the first good rain we`ve had in awhile too and no rain no mud

What`s up trimble that mud is sticky it just clings to the tires, I`ve aired them down to 25-30psi before and they dig and clean better with the lower psi but I didnt have time for that the other day, when I get new tires I would like to get baja claw radials I love the looks of that tire and from what most people have said it is a good tire on and offroad, later gota go to work

yeah Toyo's arent exactly know for their offroad prowless. but aired down any MT will prove a GREAT traction aid.

The Claws are a good tire and they do look good. The one problem you will find with ANY directional tire is that you run out of rotating options. But really thats not that big of a deal.

I like the Claws. But i love my swampers. hopefully 38's in a year or so.

do you know if they make a good super swamper in a 16" rim size? 38`s and gears are definately in the plans for next years mods,I`ll take some better vids later on when it rains some more, I`ve got a few better places to go near where we live but they`ve got soybeans planted there now so when those die off I`ll make a bigger and deeper mudhole

The tires look good. I really dont care for the bullets on the Sidewall but they dont bother me this much.

I have a magazine that has them (4wheelparts) priced at $295 for a 37x13.5R16

they have no bigger/wider sizes
