So does anyone have these tires or ran them on a K5 before?? mine are going on my 89 when they get here. Just looking for any input on what you folks thought of their performance, any pics would be good too!!
 
i run 33x12.50x15 on my '87 k5.tried 35's but did not handle well and clearance was an issue since im totally stock,if you have lift or good springs may work but not sure
 
I have a 4in tuff country lift, i was just wondering how people liked the 10.50s since i got those, i dont think i got the power to turn anything bigger in bogger model lol....
 
I see alot of this size run at the mud drags and they seem to work quite well, i guess what im asking is how they are out wheeling in mud and trail roads ect.......and do they take alot to turn in the slop?
 
Bogger is one of the best mud tires made. That were it will shine.

Sucks on road, not the best on other trails/rocks.

If you are a mud lover you will be impressed with them
 
I figured there would be no comparasion to them in the mud besides a paddle tire lol, does anyone have any pics of their K5 on these? with or without wheel spacers doesnt matter just curious on stance
 
when you get these i'd like to see pics. i might buy 2 of that size to match my q78 ss, and put the boggers on the rear of my mud truck. i need to see how tall they are.
 
i picked up 2 new 35 x 10.50 x 16 boggers today. they are narrrow, mounted them on stock chevy 8 bolt wheels. i'll get some pics.
 
the 10.5 will sit in the wheelwell better than a 12.5 if you dont have much lift.the bogger ss will be good in mud and adaquate on sand and rocks.road noise may be louder than a normal tire though.something that you will have to contend with for having optimum tracktion.
 
Whats a good psi if i have to take them on the highway?? max is 45 thats seems a bit much
 
most tires have a max rating for a given max weight to put on them.you have to figure out where the tread pattern sits flt on the ground so you get even wear for a that particular tire and the weight of the truck.so say the ties are 3000 pounds each with a max of 45 psi.your truck will be about half that per tire.so you would run 20 to 25 psi per tire.i do 25 up front because of engine weight and 20 in the rear.thats a load range "e" tire also.but you will have to calculate that according to your trucks weight ratio.there is a chalk on the tire test to check where the tire sits also.where you put chock on the tire and run down the road a quarter mile and see where the chalk rubs off to see if you need more or less air to make a good contact pattern and have even wear on the tires.ken,i dont always word things right.my gf makes fun of me all the time for it.lol.avery ive seen tire tests where they say they are alright for rocks and sand but not he best as they are primarily a mud specifc tire and like to dig in when on sand.
 
Let me summarize:
-Max psi is for maximum load (also printed on the sidewall).
-0 psi is for 0lbs on the tire.
-The proper pressure is a linear interpolation between those two points, based on the actual weight your rig puts on that tire.
-For wheeling, none of that applies - typically you go as low as you can safely go, without popping beads.
-The bigger the tire, the less pressure it needs to support the same load.
