JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

325/85/16 baja claws after 4 years. They are the best mud tire iv had. Better then nittos and not as loud, as for for these tires lasting a long time it depends, iv had people get 65,000 out of them, people get 85,000 out of them, iv also seen people get 30,000 out of them. For being on a light vehicle like a jeep you can't go wrong. They aren't a tire you would want to use in snow, unless you want to end up in the ditch. .

I had good experiences with the claws in the snow.....running down the interstate at 45 when everyone else is creeping at 5 down the shoulder.

But YMMV- it's VA, we don't get a ton of snow.

As far as I know, they don't make a 35x12.50R17 for the claws. They do make a 315/70R17 (same size but metric) of the TTC version.

Mickey Thompson Part 5876 - LT315/70R17, Baja Claw TTC Radial

Lot cheaper there than what you got quotes for. Although still not cheap.

Sorry that's what's I mean when I said 35 12.5 17 haha.
They are pretty expensive, but I guess you get what you pay for?
