Get them. Once you got'em you'll never run another tire. At least I wont.

theres also a blue label but its a different compound and designed more for being driven on daily.

Is blue lable their normal street DOT tire or is it an  intermediate between red and regular?

[Ruari]

I don't think they make anything but red and blue labels.  Red labels when driven down the road wear out super quick.  Blue labels are not so bad on the road but I don't think they are DOT approved.  I love my 35x13.5 Krawlers and may not try a different tire for quite a while.

oops nevermind it needs to be a producion tire

Just got a set of 35's wondering how low can you air these down and still be safe.
2 trips at 9lbs the beads are leaking bad 10" m/t classics no beadlocks? 

[Ruari]

I haven't had onboard until now so I have yet to run them below 20lbs.  This weekend I plan to try them out at 12lbs.  I'll let you know after.

[lucky7]

Cool not to many people dropping that much coin on tires hoping to get more miles out these than my
iroks so far they have great grip but worried about the bead. So maybe thier soft enough to not drop down
so low.

I'd personally look at the BFG MT2s that just came out last month.  Really good if you also want a bit of daily driving.  (loads more aggressive than the old ones)

Their pretty cool...  They actually look like krawlers but with smaller blocks that are closer together and with siping...    I have heard that they rock, but only in the magazines....

i have mine now and mounted them up on an 8.5 inch wheel at 5psi and they seem do be fine but i have not worked them real hard yet so that might be a bit to little air pressure
