I just made the switch from 30" carnivores to 32" roxxzillas, 100% happy with them, they have been awesome so far. I ride PA, WV and TN mainly...they hold the line so much better than the Carnivores.
I know carnivores are popular but I think it's just because they are lightweight. Do you think this video would have persuaded you if you hadn't already bought some
@@GrimRZR ya I think so. If this is the type of terrain your going to ride this is definitely the tire you need. With them being so lightweight means there is a weak point somewhere.
@@TheCanAmCrew I've seen more carnivores with sidewall holes than any other tire
Just bought a set of roxxillas with the standard compound based on your review! thank you for the video!
They are still an amazing tire even after trying many different competitors
I don't do anything crazy enough to warrant the sticky's and wanted to get longer life out of them, that's why I went with the standard compound. It was between these and the XTR 370's.@@GrimRZR
@@CodyMZ71 I think you made the right choice
Another great tire option in this video if you can't make up your mind. czcams.com/video/ze-W2YXsIUU/video.html
I put a beautiful set of motovaters 8 ply 32 inch on my machine. I love them bro. The treds are close together so nothing can puncture the tire and they are beefy. I have to get on the train tracks to get to a lot of places I like to ride. It's a true 32 inch as well. I don't know how long they last but I have 400 miles on them and they still look great. Thanks bro. Stay safe and God bless.
Have tried those but let us know how they work on different terrains
Just got Rockzilla and just saw your review! I made a good choice
Definitely my favorite tires so far
You can’t end with an ending like that!!! You got me all jacked up!! What new tires???!!! You gotta tell us!!! Nice job👍
It's a surprise. Lol
@@GrimRZR ? Are they out yet lol?
@@scott1111 can't get them yet
Out yet ? 👀
I'm still liking my 30" XTR370 tires Maybe when these wear out, I'll check these out.
The 370's are awesome. Only a couple places where I see a difference where the Roxxzillas do better
I’m running a 33” XT 370. They measure true to size. So far great traction. The 33” is a lil softer than the 32’s too.
I think the 33 has little taller lug also. It's a great looking tire.
@@GrimRZR it does. 1” lug and 1 1/4” sidewall
@@starRayxx seen some today in action and they look amazing
I’m riding a 22 x3 XRC with stock 32” liberties but want to go a little bigger . I’m leaning towards Tusk Megabites in a 34x10r15 if not that of course I’m going 35” rockzillas . I have 26” maxxis zillas on my outlander max xt and they are unstoppable , maxxis makes a great tire
Yes they do. They ride good too
Best tire hands down, i have over 800 miles on mine. Maybe a little more than that and still going strong. I have a new set waiting when they finally give up. Great video.
Thanks. I barely have 800 miles on the RZR
35x10x14, worst tire I've ever owned, don't use them in freezing temps, they freeze up, crack and come apart, the Liberties on the other hand are amazing!
@@collinmorgan20 luckily it doesn't get very cold down here. Good to know if I get to ride some snow
@@GrimRZR yes for sure just want to make more people aware that if you have the sticky compound don't bother trying to use them in snow/ice/cold.
@@collinmorgan20 if I was in a cold location I would totally make a video.
I'm running the original 32-10-14 super grip k9s and I love them now granted they are not the sticky compound but I did groove the a little to help the lugs flex and it has made a 100% difference wish I could post a picture to show the groove I did
The tread looks great on them. No doubt with a little work I bet they do better.
You could post a pic on FB if you had it.
Awesome review, I love my 32s on the x3, no clutching needed, next time will go 35s though
Thanks. My 35's have done really good. Very happy with them.
Another con, at low psi the side walls are easy to puncture. I still love my set and will probably buy another set when they are worn out. Good video!
Thanks. I try and stay around 10 psi with no sidewall problems so far
@@GrimRZR Same, I've stuck with 10-12 since I got a puncture at windrock, I was at 8 then.
@@paulwuzhere hopefully it helps. Sometimes it's probably just going to happen though
@@GrimRZR very true. I keep plugs and a sidewall slug in the machine now. I need to add some of the colby valves you reviewed a while back
I've had pretty good luck with performance and longevity with the GBC Mongrels. On and off road. Great all around.
I haven't gotten to ride with anyone that has them.
Great video Johnny
Thank you. These tires are awesome
Awesome video great information
Thanks
Great review! I’ve been waiting for you to do this review. I know you ran the XTR 370’s before these. I’ve been on the fence of which tire to buy. I’m not one to hit the spicy stuff but want a tire I can have confidence in. We ride Windrock and other areas. Would you think the 370’s would suit me better? I appreciate it!
The 370 is an amazing tire. From what little experience I have at Windrock the 370 is a great choice.
I’m guessing the 370’s will probably last longer is another plus for me. We have to ride the highway a little here and there for some of the trails in my area. Thanks again for the good review!
@@darrenhicks9918 I'm not sure they would last longer. Mainly because they have less tire on the ground. Lugs are more spread out
Yeah, makes sense. I appreciate your replies!
@@darrenhicks9918 Thank you. It actually helps the channel grow.
My friend is running 32 XTR and I have 33 XTR on my krx and we didn't know at the time that the tread on the 33s or like an inch deeper and it seems that I can pull up rocks with them better than he can with his it's a lot like you were saying kindly sucks that when you buy a tire they're not the same
The 33 and 35 have huge lugs. The 32 and smaller have the shorter tread.
I'm torn on what to get next for my RZR 900S. Mine are offset, so I'm 64" wide. I run 28" Sedona RockaBilly tires. I'm thinking about the System 3 XCR 350 next.
I was also checking out the Tusk Terrabites. Opinions?
I like Roxxzillas over 350's but they probably won't last as long so it depends what you really want
Did you manage to cut the tires? Im doing it right now.
I did cut a set. It might have helped some in wet conditions but it wasn't noticable
I’m still running the stock big horns so far no complaints but I don’t play on the rocks. Still enjoy the videos though 👍👍
If they made a big horn in a 35 I would have them.
Groove them tires!!
That is next for sure.
@@GrimRZR i like the looks of cut 1 u showed. It would help a lot in the mud.
@@jeffyoung2089 I try to avoid the mud but that cut does look good
Those new ones are what i'm lookin for
Maybe
Itp versa cross work really well in everything and I just got a set of system 3 xt300,s so far they seam to work really well on everything too
Ive seen those in videos but never in person. Good looking tires
Xt300 I could not get rid of fast enough. Don’t wear well soft and will split quick. Rims bead locks stripped easy. Glad to have gotten rid of these
@@MrJludeco wow good to know
Yeah, good luck with the XT 300’s. I put probably fifteen plugs in my set before I sold them. Never again complete junk as far as I’m concerned. Supposedly the new ones are 10 ply that would be much better
@@x3dominator28 dang that's good to know
Great video and I like the Zillas. I'm currently running Superatv Warrior 34x10x14 XT tire and they are a great tire but I'm wanting to go more towards the XCR350 or Zillas I ride more rock, dirt hill climbing. Do you have any input on the XCR350?
I had some 370's that did great. Never ran 350's but seen some on a rig and they weren't impressive. Not saying they aren't since I haven't tried them yet
I got talked into a pair of 350s. They sucked for me here in Arkansas. They would be good in Moab. I sold them after 3 rides. They were that bad.
The 370s are pretty good though. I have a friend that has them.
@@jackadamz3 good to know on the 350s
Comment for the algorithm!
I will take all the help I can get
My 32s measure at 31”. Granted, they aren’t mounted yet. I kinda wish I knew they would run small and I could have ordered 35s (a lot of guys measure theirs out at 33”)
Thanks. They are still pretty big
I run the super grip K9 and I absolutely love them so far. I have around 800 miles on them and I mainly ride rocks and some highway and they are barely worn
I do believe K9's will last longer. All they guys that bought them around me sold them though. They didn't offer the same traction as Roxxzillas
K9s dont grip like zillas at all especially on rocks
@@frankcox9876 I didn't think so either. Hard to know unless you have run both.
Everyone I know calls them k9 super slicks! Zero traction lol
@@chadhall5921 that's petty funny right there
Are they heavy? I just went with a set of Maxxis Rampage tires, so far so good..👍🏻
I don't usually pay any attention to weight. I know it's a big deal to lots of people but I just go off of performance. How they act while I'm driving. I haven't rode with any Rampage. What did you have before
@@GrimRZR stock Bighorns, I plan on trying a few different tires to see which one I like the best.
@@Bean-sz7sr big horns actually do pretty good they are just short. I like trying different stuff too. Only real way to know what you like best
@@GrimRZR Weight effects performance...
@@jimmywallace2687 yes it does
Pretty spot on review!
Several locations in the video but the opening is Indian Mountain
I think a few bolts in the rear tires will keep that rear end right behind you
Yes it would. Probably even more broken parts too
I’d say cut #1 or #4 would be best for side traction. How do these compare to Maxxis Carnivora?
I have never tried carnivores but lots of friends did and they didn't like carnivores at all compared to Roxxzillas
@@GrimRZR good to know! I currently have carnivores and ride TN and KY. I will be trying Roxxzillas out next.
@@tylerswindle1336 I really like them. Until a new tire comes out
🏆🏆🏆👍🙏
Thank you for sharing.
Thank you too
Try the System3 XC450s.
I would like to get a set eventually
I just ordered some for my TJ
I want to see it in action. It has got to be awesome
@@GrimRZR I would love to see them in action to but I can’t find any wheels for them and I’m kinda bummed out.... I’m kinda thinking of returning them because the size is a 35X10.00R14 which is fine but I cant find wheels that are with a 5 bolt pattern
@@Ghost-oq4qj I'm sure someone will buy them. The 15 in versions are all on backorder right now.
@@GrimRZR alright so... 😂 I got the maxxis 35” creepy crawlers
@@Ghost-oq4qj Haven't heard of those. You like them.
Anybody running these on a light non-UTV rig? 35x10 at 55lbs is perfect for my samurai
Depending on how you ride the sidewalls may not be strong enough. They would give you the ultimate traction though
@@GrimRZR figured - I’m going to give the e rated 10 ply Gladiator ATRs a shot since they’re much like the STI x comp atr’s that are DOT approved. Such a bitch to find tall narrow tires on a 15” these days
@@Bluecollar_armorer I'm running some tires that work as good as the Roxxzillas but have kevlar sidewalls. They would hold up much better. MRT Rocky RX. Look those up
@@GrimRZR i just googled those...i dont see any 35x10 in stock or alot of back order. ill keep looking though just did a quick browse on the go
i ordered 35 inch on 15 back at the start of january they keep saying no eta backordred. By the time i get them there will probly be a better tire on the market lol.I keep getting walked around by all my buddys w them .
That is a definite con for them right now. Unavailable. Hopefully that will change soon
I'm running 35 inch kanati mud hog truck tires right now. Last ride I broke a rear axle , slid backward caught traction on other tire and my portal exploded. The gears blew thru the case. I can't get any traction w heavy truck tires. This probly would not have happened w zillas. Worse part is I bought the rig already Portaled so no warranty. 700 dollars for new box. Still can't belive the rhino axle didn't pop 1st.
@@SadlonCattleCompany I thought I wanted portals but ended up deciding on a gear reduction
@@GrimRZR I'm not sold on em. Gear reduction ,rcv axles, rs1 diff and your going places. If I bust another probly gonna take em off. Thats was my fault though heavy tires and a heavy foot..Ground clearance and the look is mint though!!
@@SadlonCattleCompany I'm scared to get RCV. Exploded transmission would be next
How do they do in mud
I stay away from mud every chance I get. They do fine on slippery hills though. Probably not the best in sticky peanut butter type mud
I heard the 15" run more true to size than the 14"
Maybe so. Mine are 14. Still good tires just letting folks know before they buy
I run the 35" on my little toyota based buggy with a 15" wheel and it measures about 34.5 tall
@@jeremymonroe2039 I bet that thing is a monster. Any pics or videos
The 15 inch tires are more true to size than the 14 inch
I have heard that but didn't have anything to prove it with
#2 curious how it turns our
I have actually cut the fronts and rears different since the video. It won't let me post a pic here but you can check out my Facebook page and see them. I'm under GrimRZR
Are you running 14 or 15” rims?
14 in wheels. I'm planning on trying out a big brake setup that says it will work with 14's but I may go up to 15 if there are any clearance problems
Grim RZR I believe the roxxzillas on a 15” rim are bigger than the same size on a 14” rim (if that makes sense) so the 35’s on a 14” might measure 33” but the 35’s on a 15” rim will measure 34.5”.. I could be very wrong, but that’s what iv found from some research.. I’m from Australia and I don’t believe there are any roxxzillas here yet... myself and a few mates have some ordered to run on our samurais as 95% of our wheeling is done on public land where we can’t use side by sides
@@Dnotmans I have also heard that. Haven't tried to do a side by side comparison yet. I probably should. Thank you for watching in Australia. Blows my mind how videos get spread out to reach everyone
I'm running RAMPAGE
How do you like them? There are a ton of tires that have got to be awesome but I never see them around where I ride.
Cut 3
I just got done with a gear reduction so cutting will be soon
What psi you running ?
I usually run 10. I don't check it every time I ride though. Probably goes lower a lot of times
@@GrimRZR thanks for the reply! I put 10 psi in. I got the regular compound and my ass end feels like it’s going all over the place. Coming over from crawler XG 30’s. My Zillas are 32’s. Wishing I would have gotten the stickies. Like I said, my Zilla tires are really breaking loose more than I’d like or am used to. The 30 inch crawlers seemed to stay put. Turbo R X3.
@@coburna5 That's is kinda what I was talking about with the lack of lateral traction. I'm still planning on cutting mine to see if it can help with that
@@GrimRZR I’m gonna follow how that turns out. I think it’s because it’s a “square top” shape too that gives us that lateral slip. With this turbo it likes to slide a good amount. In 4WD they are amazing. Cutting lugs may just help us. You are awesome man on the replies!!!
@@coburna5 thank you. I try to stay on top of it when I can
#5👍😎
Lol
