I was just curious if anyone has seen them in action? If so what did you think, and what terrain were they being used. Right now I'm running 36 TSL Bias. They work well just wondering what I could go with next. I was thinking the 37x1250x15 creepys.

ive seen them take rock tire slashing abuse more than any other tire...

They seem to hook up really well. I followed a rig with them at moab, and he never slipped or spun once, where others were slipping.

I just ordered a set of 35's. Cheapest price I found was at discounttiredirect.com, but they were on backorder.

Nebraskatire.com had them in stock. They will be here tuesday, and I will let you know what I think of them.

How do they do in east coast stuff, slippery rocks, like tellico, harlan, etc. Thats the kinda places I run in. Two of my closes friends are in Moab now, needless to say I'm jealous

Not me. I was only rendered temporarily immobile.

For the money you can buy two sets of Big Horns.

Ok ive seen a number of guys with creepy crawlers on thier rigs and none have spoken badly about them and no one that I know of says they wouldnt buy them again. I also have seen them get very stuck in mud though but they hook up very well on rocks wet or dry.

I had a guy at my school with 35" Creepy Crawlers on his YJ. They did awesome in the mud.
