Maxxis Creepy Crawler M8090 Tires

These are ply bias tires, if you don’t mind the semi truck road noise and feel for a few miles when you first get going than I would recommend these, with that being said I’ve ran my creepy crawlers close to 2 years now and still would buy another set when it’s time. Road noise and truck feel goes away after a couple miles of use, the treads looks awesome, I’ve used them on rock crawling, mud, sand, sharp rocks just about anything and always surprises me of how well they keep up of my abuse.

Off Road and Highway Driving. I've run Pitbull Rockers, Maddogs, BF Goodrich Krawlers and IROKS. The Creepy Crawlers are the best tire I've run. The closest competitor are the Pitbull Rockers. Pitbull used to be the tire of choice because of the high performance and low cost but their prices are comparable to the Creepy Crawlers now. If you're going to pay the high price you want the best tire and Maxxis Creepy Crawler is the best in my opinion. The Maxxis is better than the Rocker, Krawler or IROKS on the rocks and far superior to the Krawler and IROKS in the mud. Maxxis and Rocker are comparably equal in the mud. Only tire I've seen better in the mud is the Super Swamper. I'm an Southeast coast wheeler so the rocks I'm basing my review on are the clay covered, slippery rocks of Kentucky, Tennessee, NC and Georgia. The tread life is horrible. On my first set of 38.5's I got 15,000 miles with about 1/4 tread left with a lot of highway driving and some off roading. I'm on my second set and trailer my rig which is an 03' Wrangler almost everywhere now to save the tread. I rotated every 2500 miles on the first set but will be rotating every 2000 miles on my new set. I air down until the guage reads 0 and not even a noticeable bulge in the tire. It does wrap around and grip the rocks when wheeling. I do not run beadlocks and never popped a bead even at the 0 pressure. This is an excellent off road tire.

Third set on my TJ Jeep. They turn heads with the massive lugs and side wall pattern. I needed to air them down to get even tread to the asphalt. If the balance is not right tires will hop then the lugs will start to cup. I always rotate them front to back to get the lugs to ware even when they did cup. All said if you keep them in check they are awesome on the trail, in a hole, or climbing the rocks. They dig holes in the soft sand. But there not a sand tire.
