Default New wheels and tires in time for Moab
Bastard and I spent the day today installing our new 18" Poison Spyder beadlocks, along with a set the super sticky icky Mickey Thompson baja claws. These tires are by far the softest compound I have ever felt, they should come in handy at this years first XRRA rock race this saturday.

Here's a thread on Pirate with all the details, but I thought this pic was cool.

These are special competition compound, they are super soft and I am guessing they'd only last a few days on the street. They say right on the sidewall "for rock crawling only, do not excede 40 mph"

You have to be sponsored by them to get these tires, you cannot buy them.

The wheels are $405.00 a piece, the tires are a sponsored thing so I don't know.
