Topic: my Pit bull Rocker radial review

[Peterbuilt84]

It's listed on their website that they have 12.5" width for a 15" wheel. Check with some of the vendors on pirate, they should have some decent deals as well

 i used 4ws on pirates and got 5 pitbull rocker radials in 39s and paid 1560 including shipping and my brother got them this morning and i called last friday

[muddywaters]

bigarms23, just to clear it up for others, what size did you order because 39" is not a listed size for the radial rockers.

 

[bigarms23]

i got 39x16.50r17 im the rocker radials

[muddywaters]

im almost positive you got the bias plies based upon your size...all the radials i've seen run narrow and there isnt a 39" listing for the radial rockers.  post up some pics when you get them.

sizing/pricing chart i have been referencing.  41.5s will not be cheap at $490 a piece.

yep they are bias think im going to send them back and go with 37r17 radials

[79coyotefrg [OP]]

are you 100% sure they come in a 12.50 wide for a 15 inch rim!?  i've always steered away from these tires just because i didn't like the wide tire for a 37.  I might have to get rid of my 37 inch mtr's and get these while mine are still in good shape.

yep

Mike,  I emailed Pit Bull yesterday and he said the 37-12.50-15's would be in stock about the second week of July

get your orders in now so when they hit the warehouse they can be on their way to your door

How are the tires holding up for you? have you been wheelin on them much? I'm thinking about dropping the coin on a set of 41x13.50 r17 radials rocker. or possibly  a set of mad dogs in the 38.5 13.50 r17 flavor. But having a really hard time picking. Not many write ups on the mad dogs.

Has the side walls broken in pretty good for you?  how many miles you up to so far? i hear they get alot of miles out of the rockers for how aggressive they are. Thanks in advance 79coyotefrg

I've mounted up 37x12.5x15 Radial and bias ply rockers.
The radials were about 2 inches taller
both balanced like a mud tire
tread patterns are a little different
the lugs are DEEP, if i remember correctly about 23 or 24/32nds

[79coyotefrg [OP]]

Ive got a little over 6000 miles on them, and they are maybe 1/2 way through the first of 6 wear bars.
 at 20psi  the sidewalls flex nicely on the street.  Ive not been in the rocks yet   but they are amazing in the mud.

[1986toyotamudder]

[79coyotefrg [OP]]

how many miles you think your gonna get on um 

on my Toyota?  25-30 k

[ToYocRawleR]

without reading the whole thread ... Whats the lowest psi u have ran the rockers at so far?

[muddywaters]

8 psi for me on my first gen.  no beadlocks.  12psi on my heavy cruiser.  same set of 37s.  i have put almost 3K on mine on the highway and the biting edge is barely worn.  quite a few trail rides and trips to my buddies property on weekends the local park is not open.  these tires have been awesome in our excessively muddy conditions of late.   a lot of people tell me how well they clean out.  you can feel them dig.   get to the rocks and they stick.  i cant say enough good about the rockers. 

[ToYocRawleR]

hmm your runnin 17's?

[SqWADoosh]

I've found my next tire. Thanks for all the great feedback on them guys.
