Anyone know of anyone wo has the new Zilla's and have any feedback on them. I like the tread patttern. Remind me of a cross between my swamplites and a mudlite.

 

[GRIZZLYWIZARD]

Have a set on the way, but won't be able to comment on them for a while.

 

[Thom]

excellent I cannot wait to hear. Could be the next set of sneakers come spring.

Gearslayer just got a set of those, here's his initial review;

I will say that since I am on my second Grizz 700 buildup and having just got some 28" Zillas on ss12's....these 28's ARE A LIGHT SETUP! The quad is all stock (not for long) and it flings these 28's with ease. When I stab it from a stand still in high...it comes right up for a nice wheelie. These is my initial thoughts. Finally a trail friendly 28" tire that is not heavy. I wanted these specifically for thier weight and size and tread pattern. I'll do a review when I get more time on them.

 

[Thom]

sounds enticing to say the least. the 27"s will be even that much lighter. Thanks Scott.

 

[Koko]

Those look like they could be a good fit for you Thom. Especially if they are as light as they claim. I'd love to see a list of the what the weights are.

 

[BATTLEGUN]

From what I've heard they're unbelievably light. Even more light than the 26ers I'm getting ready to buy. I wonder what ply they are? Hmm. Time for more research. :confused2:

AT28X9-14 ..........23.9
AT26X9-14 ..........21

AT27X9-12 ..........21.5
AT26X9-12 ..........20.2

All weight are in pounds

They are 6 ply rated.

 

[Thom]

Did the same earlier. I used the rear 27 10 12 which is 24.3 pounds My 26 Swamplites are 30 pounds so I am already down 12 pounds in the rear.

It sounds like they will be a great compromise hopefilly the lighter tire does come with puncture problems.

Ummmm....

 

[GRIZZLYWIZARD]

I think he meant "does not".

 

[Guest]

I sure hope so.

I sure hope so.

I feel sure he meant the light weight probably = softer material and is therefore concerned with the puncture resistance especially because there is a lot of open space on the tire for hole makers to get at. And I can def. see his concern because those numbers posted by GrizzlyWizard are off the chart for a 28" tire. Oh boy. I hope we don't have plug zilla's in the making. :dontknow:

I'd be more worried that they wear quickly with the soft compound. Only time will tell. I'm looking forward to the review. ccasion14:

I's just joking around...sheez :violent5: I'm looking forward to the review as well. I almost bought a set but too many people I talk to are getting them or are getting ready to get them...and they just didn't "do it" for me. I dare to be different
