I think I would have tried to make a nice smooth arch to the fender instead of the sharp angles. But, ya I think that's whjat he meant, roll the edge for safety

It look's pretty sharp. (Uh, literally.) I don't know, not saying that your going to cut yourself on them or anything, but still.

So when these don't work out your going 54" Boggers right?

They aren't sharp, they're rolled over real nice. Any kinda trip I put on it would probably fall off anyways.

Why aren't they gonna work out? If I break front axle shafts left and right because of the weight, I'm probably gonna go to a 46 or 49" military tire. I think the michelin XL.

Even if I made 6 figures a year, I don't think id buy 54" boggers. I may be only one here that thinks this but interco charges too much for tires. I'm not saying military tires are better because they aren't but I just don't see payin 3000 for a set of tires. Kinda like the custom wheel thing.

When some drunken a-hole blast by you nut deep in mud with a tiny set of 39.5 Boggers I think you'll realize why they are worth the money.

That being said...
Id love to see another manufacturer develop a purpose built mud tire to give Boggers a real run for their money.

I like it. The front cross member will probably work just fine, but that is the only thing that sticks out in my mind.
