I have been looking for a scale tire for my jk. The body is about 1/8.9 scale so the Rock Crusher 1.9 would come i at a 37 inch tire which is perfect.

So my question is how do these tires handle on different terrains?

Rocks?
(Keep in mind Colorado Rocks are huge slabs of rock, not scale boulders)
Dirt?
Mud?
Snow?
Vegetation?

Thank you ahead of time "thumbsup"
 
they may work fine for you up there but down here in FLA. not to good thay like to make one big flat spot and thats no to good for rocks as for mud and sand thay gum up with mud or wet sand :-( but thay look good "thumbsup"
 
is the flat spot from the foams? or are you leaving your tires sitting with weight on them? anyone from a rocky place have a review?
 
No. He is probably talking about the treads/lugs being too close together.

I ran the 2.2's for maybe 10 minutes and took them off. I did cut the tires all to heck to try and help them with some luck but the tires look crappy now.

I ran the 1.9's for about 5 minutes on my yota scaler and took them off.

They look cool but handle like poo on the rocks. I can't attest to any other surfaces. Really I don't know so many people have them on their rigs, other than looks. Just my opinion though.
 
The crushers look really good, but don't work very well out here, you would be better off with the rok loxs out here for a scale tire. The flat irons work alright, but pack with snow and mud in those conditions. Plus they look to wide IMO.
Ok back on topic the Crushers work better if you sipe and grove them, but then they don't look like crushers any more. The real problem with them is under compression the lugs fill in the gaps in the tread pattern and they act like slicks."thumbsup"
