grooved my LTB's

[trailbound xj]

well I was thinking about going to 35's but I decied since my LTB's still have plenty of tread I will just mount them on my new wheels.here is what I came up with.

don't know why but I figured I'd share.

i just had me siped. what did you use?

 

[trailbound xj]

I bought a Ideal (name of company) tire groover from bryke.com . the thing works pretty slick , takes about 10 min to get to full temp , then each tire took me about 20-25 min.

What size blade did you use? Surprised they arent chunked, mine were pretty bad after only a year without grooving.

Refresh my memory as I know this is a good idea, but I can't remember why... This helps with wet traction, heat buildup and chunking?

it helps the lugs bite better for all types of traction with more edges and ive heard it makes the tire more flexable

I'd have to say it would increase chunking, especially on the outer lugs where he took the cut all the way out, I've heard some dont go quite to the end to help out.

that pretty much what I've heard , so I figured I would give it a try. I grooved the front one's alittle more , just the front two look like this
