Competition Mud Terrains or All Terrains

[Big MAK]

Which are best for pulling?



... ok; I know the m/t will have better bite -- but at some point the choice is 'dig in' or 'spin'; right? Digging in breaks stuff; so perhaps an a/t is a better over-all choice? Unless you loose a-lot of distance with less digging in -- so it's worth the extra wear and tear -- but digging with 'no go' is worthless; so what tends to happen on the track?



Yeah; I overthink stuff. That's why I didn't compete this year and I'm still putting a truck together... .

we have a set of hercules terra track m/t on out 92 gmc we use to plow they wear pretty slow and they get good traction we had a/t on before and they just spun and caked up

Mud tires are good for about 1 out of 10 tracks I have seen.



I'm a fan of an all season tread.

Shhhhhh... . Sleddy.

Mak,

You are running a 3rd gen correct?

Check out the PRO Comp series of tires, also Mickey Thompsons on www.4wheelparts.com or www.4wheelcustoms.com

I agree 100% with sleddy. With our superstock truck we have ran bf muds & a/t's & the a/t's always work better unless it has rained & the track is muddy. On a good clay track or dry dirt the a/t's work better everytime.

Thanks for the feedback. More gripping surface and edges with the a/t. I gather from this that most pulling surfaces are relatively hard packed or the m/t would be better for the 'bite' effect.



I'll check out the procomps and m/ts.
