Hey everyone. Just came across Fuel (Tri-Ace) Off-Road tires called the Mud Gripper. They look EXACTLY like the Toyo M/T.

Anyone have any experience with these? Do they last? Did Toyo just loan out their mold or something? My LTS has a set mounted and they look fantastic and they're quite a bit cheaper than a Toyo. They come in a variety of standard sizes too. My Coopers only have a year left of them so I may just have to try a set of these!!

 

Are they for sale anywhere yet? There's a couple threads on here about them already iirc.

 

My local shop has a set mounted on Fuel wheels already and they look great. The package was $2300 for the wheels and 35x12.50R17 so I thought that was a pretty decent deal.

 

Yeah im also wondering the same thing!! i definitly wanna try them out also! If anybody gets these tires should keep us updated.

 

rimzoneonline sells the Fuel tires, not cheap thou

 

IIRC a couple bucks/ tire more expensive then toyo

 

Hmm, they look pretty sharp. They do look similar to the Toyos. The Cooper STT's are also a similar tread design.

 

They look good. But there is no way I'd buy an unproven copy of a Toyo when the cost is the same or more. The whole point of the "knock off" industry is to save money.
