            For that price I'de rather get creeps or treps I think but it does seem like a pretty gnarly tire

              creeps and treps dont come in a 54" useless tire size

              well they do have their purpose, but 54" tires would get fuckin owned in rockcrawl comps

                    Imagine how much tire shine it takes to polish just one of those Turds.

                      Comps arent everything. Problem with something that big in rock crawling is on any big rock you have to Bump it pretty damn hard to get up and over or you just sit and dig to china. Look at A.J. Condon and his timberdonk, he dug more holes then he did climbing over rocks.

                      47's are about as big as you want to go before the rig starts getting to heavy, tall and retarded for anything but mud bogs

                        And are made from the hardest Rubber known to man. Not to mention there are TONS of these tires out there. Not like the small run of BC's

                        Costs alot of money to make a tires as big as these. The mold set alone has to be huge, IIRC they said it weighed in at 3600 pounds.

                        There are plenty of "low" rigs that are running 47"+ tires. Just look at the
                        Tennessee rigs, FatGirl was plenty low.

                        Both guys who ran them in the TTC liked them better then their past tires.

                          yes, but there also running 600+ hp, and they dont crawl. they dont know what crawling is. Fat girl is a floor it and hold on and see where i end up rig. Let him come to the parks up here and he will run into a rock wall going no where fast.
