When we installed 33x12.50 Dunlop Radial Mud Rovers onto Stubby we noticed a huge decrease
in power, but we also noticed something else: They didn't act like mud tires
on the highway! We were surprised at how quiet and well mannered they were, especially for
33's.
As you can tell from the looks of the tread, traction is
not a problem! We've been buried up to our eyeballs in mud, and these tires
refused to get stuck (click here for a picture).
We've changed to 4.56 gearing to compensate for the larger tires, so we now have our original
power back, and then some! Watch for the gear-swap article to be released in March 2000,
performed by Randy's Ring & Pinion Service.

Evaluation:
Great mud tires. A nice traction change from all-terrains.
