Wisconsin Tacomas and bad financial advice

Yea, certainly when I find a snowy field to fly around in.

 

From what I can tell you just dump a certain amount of weight into the tires and then you just drive and they balance the tires out almost immediately. They help if you have mud caked on the wheels. @G.T. had them in his Hutchinson wheels

 

Weird. I wonder who figured that out.

 

but think of all the fun you gain by driving like a maniac

No amount of balancing can fix Hutchinson wheels.

 

It’s been a thing in the moto world for a while.

one thing to note though, they’ll only help balance vertical not lateral

 

Being a good father and such, I taught my son that much can be learned about safe handling of a vehicle by driving like a maniac in safe areas


Note to self: avoid Hutchinson wheels.

 

The beads seemed to help

They're great wheels. Heavy AF and they're dual beadlock. I'd get them for a dedicated trail rig. Only thing that sucks is they only come in 17s. And they're also DOT compliant.

Driving like a maniac definitely helps when trying to learn how your vehicle handles

 

Dyna Beads rock. Dead simple to install and use. Centrifugal force balances the tire.

Hutchies are badass wheels but are heavy. I actually ran “gasp” AT tires on mine and chuckled when my mates with MTs at 15psi would struggle for traction while I was at 5psi and just cruising through.

 

I'll never understand why people think wheeling with ATs is stupid. I haven't had many issues

 

Because people influence with MTs. If they don’t look cool, they suck.

 

Some of us have to drive our rigs home.

 

I've been on AT's the entire time I've been "wheeling" and the only weakness I can see is mud traction and maybe MT's are better for abrasion resistance in the rocks. Aside from mud, I don't see a traction advantage with MT's.

That said, I don't have anything against anyone wanting a set of true MT's. I'm looking at a set, even though I don't really need them. These will be a second set of tires and wheels, so why not run some great looking MT's?

And, I'm not on Facebook or Instagram. This is just something I want for my own entertainment. I fully understand wanting to stick to an AT for an all around tire. But, who cares if someone chooses to run a mud tire?

 

Just remember that MTs are horrible in the snow

 

Well technically the ST Maxx isn't a full blown AT. It's a hybrid between the 2

 

And horrible in the highway noise and fuel economy

 

Highway noise? What's that?

 

That's what makes your mind go numb and the stereo sound bad.
