So I came across another tall/skinny tire some of you probably already know about but they look Rad on a Dually! Probably a bit too much for my purposes but they're 44x9.5 r20. Goodyear G272 goin for around 275$ea.

Another super tall skinny tire

Wish that was more like a 40". Super cheap for that tall. Tall skinnys are my favorites for deep snow.
wish they had more sidewall tread. I'd be all over those then
Look up Zeus33rd. Joe had some pretty awesome Michelin’s IIRC on his doolie. Very tall and skinny.

He’s still around. He posts on FB almost every day riding his KTM in Nevada now. Just started installing a Cummins in his big red beast a couple of weekends ago. Be cool to see that tank rolling again. Been a couple of years.
You sure he's in Nevada not Nevada city?
His were 38" on 16" rims
Yeah, he moved about a year ago to a family property in Midas, Nevada.
Probably those xzl tires? The old surplus I think they're for 16.5r wheels I like them too and they'd be more in my range if they still made them and weren't for 16.5.
I'd imagine these are probably stiff in the sidewalk too like other typical military utility tires.
They were the xl 9.00 16.
That's why people liked them for the 16 rim unlike the hummer tires that were 16.5 or the xzl that were 20" rims.
And yes they have very stiff sidewalls.
I just checked now and they are $550 a tire new.
Pic I stole off his FB when he was at KOH.
I wanted 53"michellins.. was going to do them back in 1997 but NJ changed their lift laws and I didn't get too. was gonna do military axles, motor and those tires...
but now 54" boggers are out and nj lift laws still suck...
15" lift and 40" hawgs...

My buddy in Vineland nj has the 53s on his '69 sweptline dodge. They're too heavy if you ask me but it looks cool
he kind of had a melt down with some of the replys here people were posting and said screw this and publicly left the site .
i dont want to get in to much but i hope the best for him as i do miss his build and him before his melt down episode .
LOL my son is getting his tattoo done there. got 2 more sessions to go
