H2's are 17 not 16.5 and they're not double beadlockMuddinManny said:Guys,
I'm a big Interco fan, so I don't want to come across as bashing or bad-mouthing. But 54" Boggers??? C'mon! Let's be real. The tire sizes being made now a days don't exactly make sense. Because the H1 and H2 craze with double beadlocks, all they are coming out with are 16.5's. This isn't exactly a wide desired rim size. With 17-20's in rim sizes becoming more popular and 15's diminishing, why isn't Interco and other tire manufactures coming out with more choices of those? I for one have noticed a big gap in the 38-44 sizing in Boggers. I'd be all over a 15x39.5x17 Bogger! That would be sweet! Even a 16x38x16 or in a 17 rim would be great! I'm not trying to come across as a cry-baby, but realistically, how many of y'all can run 19x54x20 tires, and justify $658.00 x 4 or 5, plus freight?
Just food for thought.

Also the 54 will be offered in a 17" wheel in a few monthsmuddermilitia said:H2's are 17 not 16.5 and they're not double beadlockAlso the 54 will be offered in a 17" wheel in a few months
Doh, my bad! Okay, you're right, but still, who needs a 54" tire with 17" rims? C'mon. That is just ridiculous. You'd sell more 15x39.5x17 Boggers than 54's any day of the week. You have to produce and sell so many tires to turn a profit. I can't see 54's doubling Interco's stock anytime soon. But the 39's would certainly add to the bottom line $$$.MuddinManny said:Doh, my bad! Okay, you're right, but still, who needs a 54" tire with 17" rims? C'mon. That is just ridiculous.

If you follow Pirate, you know that the most demanded tire from Interco (that they don't make yet!) is the 42" SX. That would be a sweet tire... and IMO Interco hasn't released one to this point because they want us to buy lots of TSLs and Iroks (not that they suck or anything!).jekbrown said:54s would be sweet on a buggy with Ouverson rockies.I think there is a market for them... lots of guys running the bigger military tires... so why not? I'm glad it isn't a fat bloated thing like 49" Iroks too.
Of the tires in that comparison pic, I'd probably prefer 47s, if I had the axles to run them. As it is, 44" TSLs (or boggers I suppose) is my limit... with this rig.If you follow Pirate, you know that the most demanded tire from Interco (that they don't make yet!) is the 42" SX.
