The extreme trekker 2 that you've shown here is the 36x12.5x15
That is the only size that has the 3 lugsdown the centre. All the other sizes only have 2 central lugs.

The ET isn't available in 35x11.5x15 only the ET2 is. I own a set of ET2's in that size and they only have 2 central lugs. The only Centipede with the 3 lugs is the 36x12.5x15 or the 36x12.5x16

I ran a set of the 35's for a while... as everyone has said, GREAT mud tire. Lugs are huge and voids are massive. On the rocks they tend to be a little hard, and the massive outer lugs bend over which wears the sharp edges real quick...

They are also very stiff in the sidewall. To really get them to work on a wrangler you need to run them on beadlocks and at pressures below 5psi (in my experience).

Yea thats what ive found as well. Really low pressures are the go. I used to run a set of Jungle Trekkers without the beadlocks but they never performed really well because i was too scared of going below 12psi and losing them off the rim
