We will start working on the mold next few days and expect to ship mid or late next month..

At 8.26inch/210mm, this will be the tallest tire we have work on so far.

Whats the Width? Also will you be using the small Soft Compound as the others or something newer? Looks cool...

Man...I need to set up a tab so you can just ship everything that you develop to me. These are sweet and I like the extra space between the lugs.

Great job

John

I've seen riding lawnmowers with tires smaller than that!
Looks awesome, and I can't wait to see what a set looks like mounted up.

Very sweet guys thanks for making a super class tire!! Hopefully with the soft compound and shallow lugs this can be a possible XL replacement. I am loving the hieght and the width!

I think my tuber could run upside down with a tire that large


If you need a tester that will give those things a workout...just let me know.



EDIT: Here is the truck:

Thanks RC4WD for making these in 40 series! I just took a tape measure to my rig. 8.26" x 3.14" is going to be wicked!
Any chance you have pictures of some prototype mockups?? J/W.

Very interested in these !

As bustedcrawler said, I think mine should run upside down with these treads. It almost does with XLs

Thats it I'm getting a set of those.
Larger tires that actually are made for crawling instead of bashing.
