So after months of waiting.....Pitbull finally started producing the 47" Growler in a 20" wheel size. I sold my Claws and ordered a set.


I think they look a ton better on the Scout than the Claws. These are a lot wider and just a little taller but Im very happy with them.

I mounted them up Friday and wheeled this weekend up in Idaho. They performed just like I expected.....SWEET :D


I dont know what they use for rubber but its good crap. Everyone that grabs the lugs cant believe how soft they are....yet after wheeling Idaho with razor sharp rocks there is hardly a mark on the tires! My Rockers were the same way.

OK....heres a couple pics

Those are sick tires, I went to your house friday night and wanted to check out the scout but you were gone. How is the Runner coming along for you guys?

slow but sure. My plasma cutter has been acting up so that slowed the process. Its more work than any of us were expecting. Going to be cool tho!

Dumb question but, I noticed that they look like they are a directional tire, any difference in traction if you run them backwards? It seems like most of the directional tires out on the market work better while running the tread in a reverse rotation.

They are a directional tire. When we got Corey's we debated whether or not to try them backwards. We decided to try them normal first to see. Traction has been great so far so no need to try to turn them around.

If I get bored sometime I might flip them around just to see but Im very impressed with how they grabbed. Even when I was hung up on my diff you could hear and see each one of the lugs trying to grab anything there. It was cool. Not to shabby for a "all terrain tire" :rofl:

Those look really nice Ches! I thought the claws were too skinny, these look way better.

Looks like fun, I cant wait to be able to go out wheeling with you guys!
