Another Tire Thread . . . Just Because
Well since we've picked every other tire apart how about these? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2471393213

I dare ya to see if you can break an axle Pro. This guy has some other sets of 50" tires in the $600 range. Ho said he wanted something a little narrower, right?

Actually I think those tires are for 2wd only. That's why they make them so big, so you don't need a second axle pushing, one with huge tires will do.

I think you do have to have flares to run those though but I don't remember for sure. Need to check the manufacturer's recommendations.

If I tripped over a cheap set of Rockwells I'd buy those tires and find something to put them on. Crazy . . .

I would love to get my hands on a set of those Goodyear's. Some XMLs would be nice too. Not that I could do anything with em', but they're cool to look at.

only if you swap over from maula to auto hubs cause jumping in and out of truck all day would be tiresome!
