Erik's sending my wheels and I'm waiting on electronics...

Trying to decide on tires and whether I want to try to make them myself or pay someone...anyone know how many tires I need to make a set of tires for the Dlux 6" wheels?

What tire tread do you want to use? That determines how many tires you need

I live in Georgia so our rocks are mainly flat though may be mossy or have some sand on them...I've asked a few different guys on here and have gotten a mixed response I'm torn between Sedona or Rovers...what do you think?

Takes 1 and 1/2 Sedona, Rovers or Voodoo's to make 1ea 8" tire to fit dluxs 6 "wheel's .
Attachment 323355

The Sedona's and Rovers are much easier to work with Voodoo side walls are very thin and very hard to work with.

Check the last few pages of my (Tom G's 1st Bully Build thread) theirs a few picks and tips on making these tires

I've only lived here a year and I just went to Flat rock the other day which looks like an awesome place to crawl!! I work all the time but I'm hoping to get out there.

Chicklet, you live in C-town?

The sedona and rover are also fairly easy to trim right to size too. The big treads are easy to count. Ha

Nope I live above Atlanta, GA. We mainly crawl with the Tennessee guys but there are decent spots around here. Great spot in Alabama (Little Rock City) which shouldn't be too far for you.

I've driven at Flat Rock a couple times. Its ok but you run out of rock to "crawl". Its mostly Flat lol .

Anyone still making "Turbo tech" steering setup for super Bully axles? Or exact plans?

I could probably make some but I just don't have the free time with work now...
