We hope to start making this tire next month.

We will still make some changes to the lugs design.

We have no plans to make other sizes.

Only change I would do is, no "cut lugs"

They need to be less round. The carcass is round like donut. The tread should be laid out more flat like.

rc4wd i sent you a PM this morning not seeing this thread. take a look at the modeling i worked with Fracture. that stand up tire on the last rendering on page 5 is EXACTLY what im after.

the standing up tire is IT!, (the laying down tire has the slits wrong)

Click the image to open in full size.

note in comparison to your rendering, the more square profile(less donuty), the wider lugs, and the sharp side lugs (not rounded), more intricate side lug designs, and lugs meet closer in the middle.

The one standing up in Stang Killa's post hit the nail right on the head.

More choices, more designs, I am going to the Poor House!

These do look good. I like the design Fracture and Stang worked on and posted up. Those will look great, and at 3.7"tall. I will buy several if they come in the soft compound!!
