pantablo 05-07-2008 10:42 PM

nah, I brought out the rover today (no cheater tires on it) and did just fine. had a blast too...no excuse not to have a good time!"thumbsup"

Considering 1.9 is a size there is nothing not real about it :P

We tend to drive more extreme stuff when we go out as the three amigos and go out a lot more so wanted to be able to do more. A technical section is still technical regardless of your tires, you just have better grip for climbs etc.

yeah "technically". but i guess we will be even as i plan to run crushers on my jk and those are about the same height as a 2.2 proline dirthawg:roll:

but you know, those reduced and narrowed claw dawgs are really growing on me:)

STANG KILLA SS 05-09-2008 03:09 PM

care to list the tire heights?

pantablo 05-09-2008 04:12 PM

I can tell you my rock claws came out about 4". the badlands I reduced for jaynen came in about 4.25". my claw dawgs are about 4.1" or so. I'll let sleek and jaynen post about the ones they have now.

in order, L to R

The hammers are actually just under 4" I really like how they look.

TwistedXT 05-09-2008 09:33 PM

as long as the tires are not over the max tire hieght for the rules in your area... i see no problem with it. Heck, i ran smaller tires on my Super rig and whooped up at a couple of comps. sometimes, smaller tires actually help. Although... its mostly up to the driver.
