Nothing that (obviously) couldn't be overcome. Pitbull has a decent bead typically. I have a set of 1.55 RB on order and will be mounting to my Wagons. If they cause me any grief I'll report back.

I used a long bolt in the center and a couple washers to compress it, no real issues. I hate mounting the wagons but I'm spoiled on gearheads

Will be waiting for my 1.9 XORs to show up now.

All orders have shipped. Everyone should be getting their tires any day now.

Got my 1.55 rock beasts today. They look awesome. The foams seem very hard. Wondering if I should trim or get other foams before I assemble because I am using glue on gear head rims.

I haven't seen the 2.2 XORs but these 1.9 XORs look bad ass, I'll post pics later. Hopefully it rains later so I can give these some mud testing.

Mine seem to work great so far on a pretty much stock weight tf2, they seem to soften up.

Let me help, pay attention to the larger letters.
You don't need to be a bitch just because I missed part of your post. And second language has nothing to do with it.

So this is the RB XL vs the XOR, RB XL has a CI 4.5" dual stage inside and the XOR has the stock foam.



They look great but they will be a bit of a pain to mount on any wheel narrower than 0.8", if you can at all. I need to try stretching one over a CI 1.5" wheel just to see what they'd look like.

I had to fix my post, but they're actually 0.8" wide mounting according the Vanquish's site. For some reason I thought they were 1.25".

Got my 1.55 Rock Beasts all mounted up and ready for a full day of testing on Sunday.

I wish, I keep putting it off after we got 3 days of torrential downpours right after my post. They feel pretty good in the hands though .

Well, I am thoroughly impressed with the 1.55 Rock Beasts. These were outperforming a lot of 1.9s and even managing some lines that the 2.2 guys had to work for. Super sticky and great looking too.

Was anyone running hyrax? I'm about to buy tires for a build and am in between the XOR's and the hyrax. Do you have experience with the hyrax Hobbezco?

I do have experience with Proline's Hyrax. Quite a bit now, but I have no experience with the XORs in either rim size.

I have been running Hyrax on my 6X6 and my daily driver since they were released. In my experience, in Maine and the other North Eastern states, the Hyrax are an excellent overall large size trail tire. Great on dirt, stumps and roots, mud cleans out easy, and they do quite well on our rocks (mostly granite). As an overall tire, Hyrax is my go to, as I do mostly long trails, though I have several sets of the newer alien compound Rock Beasts that I keep around for those places where we crawl that are pure rock.

We don't do comps in my area so, I cannot comment on performance in that way.

I don't understand how they are nearly the same height when Pitbull lists them about 1/4" shorter than the XL's...
