Wyoming B.S. Thread

Eh word is little...haha

 

Good point! There is totally such a thing as "too much snow".....a.k.a. " head back down for beer:thirty"

 

Yea no kidding...haha I am not a big fan of snow wheeling.

 

I don't mind snow wheeling until i slide off the rd or into a tree then i hate it!!
digging is usually pretty easy though

 

Got stuck waiting on a wreck on i80 coming down the pass. Had to wait for 4 hours.....
so i busted out the HW and got crackin.

 

Holy shit haha thats a long ass time

 

Man I hope that doesn't happen when I come home

 

Bummer man! just go for the MTR's Gage!

 

MTRs! What I'm getting!

Actually honestly look at the Hanook rto3 mud tires. Pretty cheap actually. Lots of good reviews. LT guys have started running them.

 

Yea they aren't aggressive at all. Better all around tire though. More of an aggressive all terrain. But good price and last a long time.

 

Why would you want 11.5 over 12.5? haha

 

17s..tires suck for 17s

 

Wide..is king haha Floating over rough roads and rocks is just a cool man at 10psi..i can haul ass over crap most wouldn't will the shit suspension i have haha

 

Don't believe me? haha Marc..back me up on Shoshone..


But really..i just like wide tires..looks way better. Our group used to fight extensivly on fat vs skinny to the point we did the math..the contact patterns are the same..just different shapes. Both are rectangles but skinnies run long ways and wides run width ways. Which leads to different handling characteristics..but the same amount of tire touches the ground.

I have also been in situation with skinny and fats..and never have i seen any major advantages vs disadvantages..and that includes 6' snow drifts..

Far as im concerned..just a taste preference really.

 

what about duratracs then? really are the best snow tire out there i think..

 

where at?

I have seen their side wall get ripped apart at Moab..haha Jerry killed two on Green day haha Not a Goodyear fan actually...even though im getting MTRs

 

ahh gotcha. yea they do great on the ice..or so ive been told..granted..anything would be better then the KM2s unsipped on ice..haha

 

You people and your wide tires Mine did just fine on the ice last winter. Just as good as my snow rated michelins anyway. The only caveat, is my michelins stayed at 32 psi all winter and I ran my KM2's at 20 psi all winter. Low psi seems to add a lot of traction on ice.

 

I just saw this and I disagree with the wide part. I can do (and do do) the same thing with my skinny tires. Just not at 10 psi (I would probably break/dent a wheel) but at 20 psi my ride is smooth as shit.

 

Yea never enough ice and snow really in powell to justify low pis..plus usally high driving a lot too. well..honestly..i didn't really drive Frankenstein at all much last winter as a dd..was nice.
