NEW BFG Mud Terrain!!! - Land Rovers Only

01001010 · 11-28-2006, 08:56 AM

My co-worker Alex sold a set of these and I JUST saw them being unloaded from the truck, its the new tread design. As soon as they off the truck I'll snap a pic with my phone so you guys can see. One thing's for sure, the tire is for a 20" rim I think, so the guys with the Rangies and LR3 are going to have a new tire to choose from!

Stay Tuned!

Ryan, I sure will, but I think im even gonna have be be sitting down and have a roll of toilet paper ready for when I hear my cost!...lol

That's not new. The 22's have been around for about 2-years. Bill Burke, for one, is running the prototype 16's. He's had them for about a year. Still no word if it will be a production tire in the 15 or 16" size.

The ones Bill Burke was running I think are Krawlers with some siping. I'm looking for the EE image now. I like that that look a lot like the Michelins on the Military big rigs! Cant wait to see how they perform!

EDIT: Here are Bill's tires...

22" for the big pimps

01001010 · 11-28-2006, 09:52 AM

Seems like they enlarged the lugs a bit, changes some angles around, and put more spacing in between each lug.

No, I know he had the Proto Muds...im just sayin they looked like Krawlers with some siping.

I also knew they had been developing something for a while now... just didnt know they finally went into production.

It wouldn't surprise me if they did wear faster than most others. I would put my bet on 30,000 miles for wear...not sure though.

Hank · 11-29-2006, 07:50 AM

So far, they're not showing any wear. But, I only got about 1500 miles on them....

A buddy of mine has a set in 37x12.50. He has about 8k and heavy trail use on them, and they shoe minimal wear.
