Default Yes another tire question....heard of these?

So searching Craigslist for random jk parts and came across a guy selling jetzon tires. Never heard of them. Looked them up and they make a 35" mud claw that can be had for bout 246 a tire. Tread looks decent. Just wondering has anyone heard of this brand before.

Never heard of them... Probably for a reason. They aren't any cheaper than some other 35s

Never heard of them either. Looks like their 35s aren't even 33s. You might want to check the actual diameter of the ones you're interested in.

Makes sense. I didn't even look at the 33s. When I saw the 35s I was like wtf? Thanks for pointing that out Maertz.

Too many known brand tires to go with one named after a cartoon.

I thought the 35/16 was a great tire for the price, even got my local discount tire to price match it. Too bad they don't make a 37.

Alright those aren't bad. But I already have trail grapplers. Just never heard of them so curious as to if anyone else has. Never know I might have found a good deal lol.
