| 8.5" Rover Moab XL Super Tires & Dual Stage Foams from Crawler Innovations
I was asked by a customer to make these tires for his Super. It takes seven Hot Bodies Rovers and Four Pro-Line Moab XL's to make this set of four. The tires are 8.5" tall and the biggest Rovers I have made. The Super Nova Dual Stage foams are from the design several of the Team C.I. drivers came up with. The inner foam is thicker and I have several different outer foams depending on the tire height. The outer foam pictured is 9.25" tall and is the biggest I am currently CNC cutting. As usual, the tires are all butt jointed with no over laps. It seeming took forever to make these. Anyways, on to the pictures: |

Unfortunately I don't have any other pictures. I was rushed to get them packed up and shipped out today. The width and height of the rim will make a huge difference in how the tire sits at rest. I don't always get all the info from a customer about the rig they are going on. So I don't know how much the Super weighs or what rims these cut n shut tires are going on. This was a rush job for 8 tires and foams all the same. | |
