This is just me, that style cut looks like it has a lot of straight ahead bite but in off camber not so good depends on what your doing with your rig
 
had the same tires with every other row cut out. bacon is running the same tire with every other row they do good like but yours should do good like any cut is better than no cut on them tires
 
I think they look like crap never really understood all that cut tire crap anyway, tire,s are about compound and tread design, just like all the so called rock bouncer,s using swamper,s instead of useing something that accutally works.

Please, do tell - what tire do you recommend that "actually works"?

yes please tell i am looking at buying new tires and dont want to waste my money on some that dont work
 
Well is it just me or has anyone ever notice how everybody raves about the BFG's, and Pitbull's, and even STX swamper's having a compound that is considered to be sticky, but rarely do you ever see anyone runing these tires on the so called high dollar buggies. All I see are boggers and plain old TSL's and then they will cut them, must be a mentality that with enough HP it really don't matter. Ever notice how less wheel speed with a soft compound seems to hook up and work better, but is not all that COOL to watch. So I guess when picking tires you either want to crawl something or just point and gun it hope for the best.

This ain't Pirate, you don't have to troll here... Tire selection has been covered many times on hardline...

There is no such thing as a "STX" swamper.

Just a few days ago, there was a thread about "sticky vs non sticky" 43" swampers, and the guy decided that for his use, the non sticky would be better.

I think it is just you :gtfo:

Guess you didn't notice what Peter Basler - the guy who won the SRRS this year - runs on his BTF buggy?

Or Cole on his Jim's Garage buggy?

Yep - Red labels. But, they're expensive and radials. Stickies work great in certain instances where a Swamper will struggle. And vice versa.

I guess you think a cut Swamper doesn't work well, huh?! :wtflol:

Different tires for different purposes. Different cuts of the same tire for different purposes.

To OP - I would think cutting out every other line of lugs would work better. That seems to be the common cut. You may want to leave the middle lug alone for some lateral stability.
