Have you tried talking to the Devon4x4 guys about this? They seem to know a lot about who deals with what :)

Also, I don't think it's illegal to personally import them. So perhaps if you buy enough of them in one shipment, you can do it at a reasonable price :)

personally i run with what suits me, but as the saying goes , you pays yer money and takes yer chance.


It's not only us Jimny owners that are happy with the Special tracks. As most know, the special tracks are a copy of the very well know Simex Extreme Trekker tyre, which has been used in competitions worldwide for many years now. You hardly ever see Maxxis Mudzillas used, they just aren't very popular. Probably for a reason. If you want a Maxxis tyre that is becoming more and more popular, then look at the Trepador. Being used in competitions Both in the UK and Europe :)


Ok guys well chrz for the info I think we all no wat ile be buying!

I've heard the same about that rubber thing.

Don't know very much about these Malatesta Kougar tyres other than they're remoulds. Very narrow compared to real Boggers, and the tread pattern don't look as open as Boggers. I'd probably stick with Special Tracks over the Kougars.

But again, what's to hold you from importing Boggers from the US? Perhaps if you drive them on road, and pulled over by the police. But for comp use, I see no problem.

Here you go Dave. But they don't come cheap B)
