our local fire dept got some big govt grant for their brush fire trk came with some big swampers looked cool but not so practical they lowered it to stock and put on stock rims they got it stuck and couldn't pull it out had to get farmers tractor almost lost it in fire another 30 sec and it would have been gone seem they had real issues with 2 things

1 turning radius they had stops in to keep tires from rubbing
2 ride--- 40 was as fast as you wanted to go breaking a horse would have been a better ride
