Default Re: Who Wants a 1.55 Pit Bull???

i picked up a set of these as i was looking for a replacement for my little unimog. i was a little hesitant on dropping down to a 1.55 tire and tried stretching them on some 1.9 hmmwv wheels and ended up tearing the inner foam in half trying to stretch them over the wheel with lead weights. so i ordered up a set of 1.55 Ute wheels from RPP, fixed the torn foam problem and took them out today for a test run. i went to a location where i am familiar with this rig and ran alot of the same lines as i had in the past. needless to say the smaller tire was all in my head and these babies performed very well. as the day went on i could see a difference between the first 5 minutes and the last 5 minutes of a 90 minute cruise. im sure they will only get better thanks alot Pitbull for another great tire now i just need the 1.9 growler for my f350 truggy

These tires are already out. 4.19" tall. I'm just hoping someone can tell me how tall they are stretched over 1.9" wheels.

They don't get any taller on the bigger 1.9". The bead just stretches and the sidewalls bulges out. Over stuffing the foams will make the tire taller but perform like crap.

Sorry, maybe I worded it wrong.

Smaller than 4" for a more true scale size tire.
