Ordered new tires

[cegusman]

Woo Hoo just ordered 4 new 38.5x14.50-15 Swampers SX's $1000 Mounted and balanced. Should have them Tue

 

[MTMike]

I have those exact same tires myself. They're decent... but they SU-HUCK in the snow (not that you'd have to worry about that in Texas)

These, should be coming in today. Going to sand blast them tomarrow and paint them Epoxy Black.

Wheel specs are 15x8 3.75 back spacing $29 a wheel

I got those same wheels but 15x10, from Summit huh??
Painted mine black also, ow and they dont work good when you hit a man hole cover racing through a rocky ravine

Got the wheels from summt, That sucks about the tire and wheel, The wheel can probable be beat back to shape though.

ahh thats 2 bad cegusman i have some 38X12.5X15 tsl im selling i live in houston 650$ w/o rims

That rim can probably be salvaged. Most of the rims on my K5 are in way worse shape then that with rockrash and dents and they all hold air just fine.

Cegusman: Keep in mind that with those tires and lockers you just moved into D60 breakage range. Those tires with a heavy foot in hard terrain can eat 30 spline stubs like nobody's business.

ahh ya thats understandable. do u wheel at spring creek alot? me and a friend are making a run 2morrow (saturday) if u can ur welcome to join us.

 

[hunterguy86]

Nice wheels, those are gonna look sharp painted black. I didnt know you could mount a 14.50 tire on 8 wide wheels. I thought they had to be at least 10 wide. This is awesome
