stock rocks will break with 44's with the right hp......but most can get away with 54's, but they are far from unbreakable.....stock rocks axle shafts are about the same if not a little weaker than the best chromo d60 shafts, but everything else is stronger obviously, housings, pinions etc....

I'm not really impressed with the 54" bogger. Other than the cool factor, it's just as wide as the 44s, the tread depth is only 27/32, which is only 1/32 more than the 44" bogger.

But, the bogger with the most tread depth has 29/32 and it is the best bogger out there (no matter what Nick thinks) it's the 38.5x15

Who cares if the lugs are too close, I'll just cut out the small ones.

It'll be street legal enough to run in La!
Must suck for you Fl. boys..... hahaha

I'm not against running v treads either, but I'll see what I can find after I upgrade to a real axle=chromoed D60 (none of that rock junk).

It basically doesn't see the road now anyway.
