i also liked the pattern. looks like bones. and also liked the skulls on the side. being that they are bias,maybe thats why i havent seen anyone with them.

If they are bias tires, why does it say radial on the link? I have the cepek fcII's which are pretty good. Hammers gotem too. They are radials too.

The FC-II's are a real good tire. I had them on my 2nd gen ram and loved them.

all the other cepeks are radials. just not those crushers. they are made with fiberglass. cause when i seen dirtydog post it i didnt believe it. so i started searching and sure enough.

let me see if i can find it again.

here it is. notice in the description is says radial construction, not radial tire. and they have no steel in them. made with fiberglass. granted, i hope we are both wrong. because i had my mind set on them. and the mud country and the FC-II's are not what i am looking for. and i know they are both very good tires.many,many reports everywhere with great reviews.

It's still a radial, just not steel belted that's all. Not using a steel belt, in theory, gives the tire more flex off-road. This tire was designed primarily for the rock crawling crowd. The fiberglass belts will give it more bias type performance off-road, but it is still a radial tire and as such, should yield acceptable performance on pavement...
