The tire looks a lot like the KRAWLER tire that BFG has been using for a few years now to dominate the rockcrawling world. The tire features BFG’s TRiGard Carcass and the Krawler –TEC system of cords that provide a 33% stronger sidewall than the previous KM. The new tread design looks great and seems to have better cleaning abilities than the old tire, but the mud test will tell for sure. BFG says that they have tested the tire in deep mud and they claim that it does do mud better than the old KM.
BFG is claiming that when these tires say a size on the sidewall, they really mean it. They claim that the 42 is actually 42” tall, that the 38 is really 38” tall, and so on down the line.
