    x2 looks a bit taller. Agree with tall and skinny vs the 13.50 or 14.50 wides.

    I bet steering/turning will improve :thumbsup:

    Wish my new tires were 12.5 wide instead of 13.5. To much ballon for me but free is free. Wouldn’t mind a set of kr3 in 40x12.5. See how it actually does with the 39s but I thought the 37s looked way better.

    Yup, 99% sure I'm going with procomp xtreme mt2, on some pro comp vapor beadlocks. Not brand loyal I just like the way those beadlocks look and always wanted to try that tire, maybe I'll qualify for a sponsorship LOL! I was looking at bfgs again, but want to try something new, and they apparently vulcanized them with platinum now or something!

    Procomp mt2s were my 2nd choice if the rockers fell through.

    My 37s are the pro comps and I loved that tire. My dad just got some in 40s and his buddy got some in 37s because they were surprised how well they did. Smooth and quite on the road. Good traction. Almost 2 years of straight trails and they still look brand new. I did put a stick through the one side wall but I think it was a freak accident.

    Their headlocks are my favorite as well and if I ever go to headlocks that’ll be what I use.

    Have you been able to figure out the overheating? Or just going for more fluid volume and adding hydro assist?

    No idea, I really think the steering box is being heat soaked by the exhaust that its sitting like an inch from. When I put the box I tapped in, I'm going to build a fender/better heat shield for it and see if it does anything. But yea my thinking is to toss hydro assist on it and see if that makes everything work easier. I should be doing that now, but i want to drive around on the new wheels and tires once I get them and see how it drives compared to the monsters that were on there. If Scott ever comes and get these, I should have new tires and wheel by the weekend!
