the krawlers are to much money even for that size you could do some tsl or boggers or km2's for way less and be just as happy.

I dont think they suck but so many people run boggers. ya sure they look agressive and are awesome tires sometimes but im not rocks 80% of the time when i wheel so i dont see a point in them. ill check out the maxxis creepys and trepadors for sure.
