What the Cliffhanger Sticky is
The Cliffhanger line from SuperATV is marketed as a rock-crawling UTV/ATV tire, with a choice of two compounds: a standard durable compound and a “Sticky” compound for maximum rock grip.
Key highlights:
- 8-ply radial construction.
- Tread depth: approx. 15 mm (0.59″) lug height.
- Side lug depth: ~1.25″ for added sidewall bite.
- Standard durometer (hardness) rubber: ~65 A; Sticky compound: ~52 A (softer = more “grip”).
- Directional tread pattern with a high-contact center lug line, staggered shoulder & sidewall lugs, plus siping for smooth surfaces.
- Example size: 35×10-15 weighs 53 lb, load rated 715 lb @ 18 psi (standard spec sheet).
In short: a tire built from the ground up for rock crawling, with an option for a super-grippy compound when your terrain demands it.
What the Sticky Compound Brings to the Table
So why choose the Sticky version? Here’s how it differentiates:
- Soft durometer (52A) means the rubber is more pliable, which improves contact patch and bite on smooth or polished rock faces.
- Combined with the aggressive tread pattern and sidewall lugs, the Sticky compound helps when you’re crawling steep rock walls, traversing slick ledges, or need extreme traction at low speed.
- According to SuperATV: “If you need ultimate grip on smooth rocks, you need our sticky compound Cliffhanger Tires… they have a perfectly dialed-in durometer hardness to maximize grip.”
- The radial construction and connecting ribs mean the tire retains strength despite the softer compound – so you’re not sacrificing build quality just for grip.
If you’re building for rock crawling and want the ultimate tire for that mission, the Cliffhanger Sticky is a strong pick. It delivers specialized traction, solid construction, and focus for serious terrain. For the average trail rider who mixes terrain (sand, dirt, rock), the standard compound version might offer better balance—but if rock crawling is your jam, go Sticky.
