Presented by the National Association of Filipino Off-Roaders (NAsFOR), the annual MAXXIS 4x4 Cup Philippines Off-road Challenge 2019 features a variety of route twists and extremely muddy terrain with uneven ground and waist-level puddles that put racers and their 4x4 trucks to the extreme test.

These MAXXIS tires have tread and sidewall reinforcements and are made with rubber compounds specific for off-road adventures. The Mud Trepador M9060 and Razr MT772 are designed to withstand punctures and cuts, endure low air pressure operation, improve off-road stability and handling, and provide strong traction in all types of terrain for superior driving performance.
