Sweet jesus, those are huge?? they make the 44s look like 33s !!

I'd like to see some mounted on a big *** mudder!! Interco should just rename them 54" Axle snappers!!

I guess in the rc world it will now be scale to run Jumbo Swamp Dawgs on a TLT!!

they say...

"The pricing has not been set yet since tire prices are determined in part by weight and the actual weight has not been set yet. They are hoping to bring it in under $650.00 per tire."

The funny thing is, with them sitting there with nothing to compare size to, I'd think they were RC tires. It looks so outrageous.

Quote taken from the webpage.

"The tire at the show was a test tire. We picked it up at the factory Friday afternoon after the engineers had popped it from the mold late Thursday night. It was the first one out of the mold, so minor changes may still be made after the initial tires are tested and dissected. There were no other ones ANYWHERE, so nobody had any on their trucks at this show or anywhere else."

Maybe you saw the 49" IROK?

Looks pretty much the same, of course the tread pattern may be different?

Still a HUGE *** tire!

Now that I see the "little" 49 inch tire, I think that is the one I saw. In that case HOLY SH!T those are going to be some big *** tires!

That tire looks rediculously oversized with that small *** rim. What size rim is that anyway, 16"?

Hey, I wondered what took so long. They've had the 49 Iroks for a while and they either already have, or will have, a 47 LTB. It was only a matter of time before they bumped up the bogger. A lot of people have been wondering when they were going to do it.

Glad to see that big brute is actually happening. Should make for an awsome show at our local mud boggs down here.

Im shure those leafs ride real nice and it flexes out real good to.

Seriously why do so many of those trucks uses the retarded super arched leafs? Ever hear of coilovers and 4 links?

54"s would go nicely on my twin force.

Nope, while that truck is very cool looking and I'm sure the craftsmanship is top notch, It's kinda useless IMO.
