hey all,well when i bought my zuk back a few months ago some 95% 31 treps x4 were thrown in with it
i gave them a quick measure up tonight,just a large steel rule next to it and sighting across,with 32 psi measures about 30,maybe 30 and a bit 8O :?
Does seem a little small,id like to have another measure.How have others found them?and are they any good as a tyre in the smaller sizes,have mates running them in 35s and 37s who love them

When measuring my half worn 32 simex centrepedes the same way they measure 32.5 still.?

I haven't measured my 30" treps, but off road, they are brilliant, I love em.
Great on wet rock, mud, not good in sand :roll: and pretty good on the
road. I'll deffinately by buying another set after mine wear out.

I have driven a sierra that was running treps in a 31 and they were awesome.

Like zookimonsta said, they are good on everything but sand, not that they are bad in sand its just there are better tyres for sand work.

I always thought they looked a little small for 31s, but never measured them.

i was a bit buggered when i measured,but they seem so small.ill look at em again tomorrow.

it has bald hankooks at the moment so anything will be better haha.might run the treps for a while and see how they go,if there anything like the maxxis bighorns i run on my lux,im sure they will be a great tyre.If i want bigger ill try the simex for a while,but wet rock will be a no go with simex haha

ive recently had more luck with simex on rock running lower pressures - however my rears are also pretty worn so i have more contact on the rocks now and less tread flex.

32psi is a bit much for a Zook, you might get a harsh ride with them at that pressure... 24 to 26psi is the norm... :wink: :lol:

maxxis site says 30.6" true size, so 95% would bring em down a little
