Blue Labels

Cole · May 22, 2008

As anyone of you ever ran any Blue Labels for an extended period of time. I know T-sup had some on there Rubicon and seemed to work well, but it didn't really get wheeled alot.
They reason I ask is I built some 37" Blue Labels at work last night and they felt soft, I mean softer than the Red Labels I have built in the past. I personally think they got the compound mixed up, but who knows, its like a clown show at work anyway.

If I could buy the tires I built tonight I would run the hell out of them. Its crazy how soft they seemed.
In all honesty there isn't **** to a Krawler, its one of the easiest tires to build and my favorite to build.

I ran 37" blue label krawers for about a year. I probably had about 20 runs on them in everything from low traction environments (tellico) to high traction rocks like Crozet.

They held up pretty well in terms of wear and cuts but they didn't hook up much better than your average interco tire. When I switched the the trepador (comp compound) I noticed that after a revolution or two fresh rubber would be exposed and it would hook up much better than the blue labels did.

Unless those blue labels are different than mine I wouldn't bother with them. I'd hold out for a comp compound.
