Thoughts on 37s

Those look familiar, hopefully have an update for you Monday

 

I wouldn't run those tires anyway. There are far superior options for trails, rocks and mud. The price is the selling point. And single digits are what we want on the trails and rocks. On beads, 6 psi for a off road only tire is fantastic. Without them, the difference in 12 psi and 8 psi is huge. I don't feel comfortable going single digits without beads cause I already debead a tire every so often on 12 but running them at 15 is a big enough difference to where I feel 12 is the sweet spot. Depending on the tire, single digits would be fine with no beads. KM2s however squish down nicely at 12.

 

GSM beadlocks. Hmmmmmmm .......

 

That's what you want, you go slow. I go fast. Any less than 15 PSI and I am literally leaving trenches in the dirt with the rims. I want the toughest carcass I can fit under my truck, and the BFG Baja arguably checks that block. For me, they are the perfect tire and rim combo. In the one year before I got beadlocks I destroyed 9 BFG KM2's and six wheels. Since going with the TWF set up, not one single flat. I'm not knocking your set up, just saying there are different requirements for different driving styles.

 

*and different terrain...

 

Ok before this goes any further let me clarify "we". The folks I wheel with and the terrain in TN specifically. "We" was not directed towards Logan or everyone else in this thread. I would be speaking ignorantly if I spoke for all but a handful of folks in here, which are the ones I wheel with. I understand the different applications of tires and am very consciously aware that it's just stupid to lump everyone into 1 category. I know you're not talking bad about my tire/wheel setup and nor was I talking bad about yours. Hopefully that was more transparent ........

I feel like we just did a scene from Tropic Thunder .....

White guy: "...... You people ......"

White guy, disguised as a black guy, playing a black guy: "What do you mean YOU people!?"

Black guy: "What do YOU mean YOU people!?"

Bunch of 37" tires for sale on pirate.

 

So after not being on TW for a while I figured id post a picture of how my fender flares came out. 3" lift in front 2" rear and -2" out of the flares

 

damn that turned out nice

 

Came out damn clean

 

With the inner lip on it looks like stock, posted a before pic for couple of guys that PM'd me to get and idea where the seam was! I used (2) sets of flares to make one since the inner diameter is longer after you cut out 2"

 

Nice job man

 

I second that.

I know first hand the amount of work that goes into that project.

 

Tits!! Nice work!

 

Anyone have more 37" porn to share. I need my fix before I buy some myself. I don't need to do that.

 

Ahh much better.
