Another Bought New Tires thread
« on: August 17, 2009, 06:15:49 PM »
Seems like everyone is getting new tires or talking about them.
Well, after Many Extremely harsh miles I had to replace mine.
Except, these are for the Jeep

37x12.5R16s
Maxxis M8090 Creepy Crawler

A quick example or two of what I do with them.


I don't always treat them nicely


But I do think they are the #1 tire for 4wheeling


If you guys think your tires expensive, check out the list price on these.  I'm glad I bought 5 the first time around. I only had to buy 3 this time out and will use the best one of the old 4 as a spare.

I wanted to take a picture with the tires next to the sky but ran out of time.

I do have a pic with one next to an R56 Mini.
It's the same height as the hood

elff,

Thanks for posting! My son-in-law and his family are BIG 4-wheelers. They've got me looking for an old Toyota truck to build up.
