Maxxis Creepy Crawler
The Creepy Crawler is an aggressive, rugged, durable bias ply tire designed for extreme conditions. Maxxis has taken the knowledge of 30 years experience and put it into what makes up the M-8090. A picture just doesn't do this tire justice. See this tire up close and you know it is a rock-climbing beast. The aggressive tread pattern of the Creepy Crawler is made up of massive horizontally siped, stepped lugs separated by deep self-cleaning voids. The staggered groove patterns and shoulder lugs maximize lateral traction. Maxxis specially designed a compound for this tire that is soft and flexible yet resists gouging while remaining strong. All this translates into excellent worry free grip in extreme rock crawling. One of the more immediately impressive qualities of the Creepy Crawler is the wrap around tread design that creates excellent armored protection to the sidewall and additional bite in deep mud... not to mention an extremely aggressive appearance. While the Creepy Crawler is street legal, it does present a higher level of road noise and due to its bias ply construction, is not the best handling tire of daily driving. The Creepy Crawler is also available in a competition version in 2 popular sizes. The competition model, while DOT approved, is not recommended for street use. Ply rating available in 6 or 8 model dependant with the Competition version in 8 ply. Size availability is limited to 9 different sizes (see below).

I have the 35x12.5x15. Tire breaks in quickly. Run 4psi back and 6 front on a 3500 lb rig and flexes quite well. NO GROOVING NECESSARY. One draw back would be the outer lugs will wear the front edges off quickly if ya like to spin them on sharp rocks. Not any worse than a normal tire just the lugs are so tall and aggressive. Tread depth is the deepest you've ever seen, 27/32nds in the middle of the tread, much more towards the edge. I don't care much for mud anymore but what I have been in they cleaned very well. I will be going bigger and probably get the comp version.

This tire is simply amazing on the rocks. I have a set of 37x14.50s on a YJ and wouldn't trade them for anything. They outclimb swampers hands down. They also clean out fast in mud. They don't do great on the highway, but that can be expected from a bias ply tire. Overall, excellent tire for trail riding, very rugged, and very tough.

This is an amazing tire, the lugs and tread is truly beastly. I def. enjoyed using these tires offroad. When they got muddy thou, they werent the best on rocks. If you spent your time on dry trails and rocks, these babies are glue.

Cons:

I use 37x12,5x15 with bedlocks on my Toyota Landcruiser 60. I like this tires especial on the rocks but is good in mud also but only with low pressure inside.
Another good aspect is the rezistance. I use this tires from 3 years in competitions and i don't cut the tires.

Tires are undersized significantly
I have a set of 35's on 15x8" rims and they measure 33.3" across with no load. my previous set was a full 3/4" in diameter taller on the same rims at the same air pressure. Maxxis wasnt too helpful on why the huge difference. Would i buy them again? Yes. fantastic tire. works well on a variety of terrains. excellent traction on sierra nevada granite and on moab slick rock.
next time it will be 37's. at least then they will be 35.5" in diameter.

absolutly amazing tires

by far hands down the best tire for wheeling i have ever used. have used on every type of terrain and i have always been extremely impressed with performance. also a very acceptional tire in the road given its a very agressive bias ply. outer edges are the first thing to wear down but they still work awesome.

I have a Cj7 rock crawler, dealing with mud(not bogging) rocks and snow. I got 35/12.50/15 I am in Colorado so you can get a picture of the terrain. I have also wheeled in North Idaho. The tires were being broken in the snow in Idaho as well as driving through creeks. I do not have beadlocks or will be getting them soon so I chose these tires for the tread on the sidewall. I aired them down to 10 in the front and 8 in the rear because on the mud I aired them down to 6 and poped them off the bead(on 1 rear tire). And I have found that was a bit too low! Ops! They clean well in mud! Not as a bogger though, bites rocks well! the best tire I have bought. I drive it on the road but not as much as a daily driver so I wouldnt be wasting money on them if it was for a daily driver but if you got the money got for it! However they are not as strong in snow and ice as rock and mud. I need to buy winter tires for that!
I would have liked to get 37s but they are expensive. but passes other tires in PERFORMANCE!
