Running TSL Bogger backwards cause a blow out?

[Russell]

Hey guys!

I got my boggers mounted the other day, and didn't notice that the tire shop mounted one backwards till it was too late.

I'm going on a wheeling trip tomorrow, which involves a 3.5 hour drive out to the trail head on said boggers.

I know that running a tractor tire backwards will tear it to bits within a very short time, but will the same thing happen with my bogger?

I'm going to try my best to get it switched around tomorrow while I am at work, but I am not entirely sure I'm gonna be able to get it done in time...

ive seen a few trucks actually run them backwards on purpose, i dont think it will be bad for it, i think tractor tires get messed up because it puts the load onto the tire from very different spots then they should be. but a bogger is a lot flatter and has a lot more contact then a tractor tire on a flat hard surface.

You shouldn't have any problem running it backwards.

Some people run them backwards on their front axle. So when they get stuck it'll help when they try to back up.

i used to run them backwards when i would take my truck to the beach so they wouldent dig as much in the sand . 4 hr trip there and back . never had a problem
