On a vehicle that didn't get wheeled at Redbird, I'd run AT's. Sure, K5matt runs his AT's there and does fine but I like having more traction on muddy trails. Just a personal preference. Plus I like the look of aggressive tires on a jeep without flares.

This is why I like my Duratracs. Not Bawwwgggeeerrr aggressive, but better than an AT. Matt just buries the throttle to get his bald ATs to work

I liked my Kevlars, but I didn't want to chew up a $200 tire on the street. BFG KM1s are still my all-time favorite tire, in a 33x10.50.

You will love them! They're worth every penny, I never would have believed they work as well as they do

i would have thought that you of all people would have believed in them...

ever seen someone throw big rig wheel on a balancing machine? i was under the impression that they were using them on trucks like yours for years. is that not true?

My only comment is that article is old! The MTs are the old style not the KM2.

mac 'love my KM2's' gyvr

i saw that as well. the KM2 is a completely different beast.

No balancing is the method used w big trucks.

No balancing is the method used w big trucks.

We use balancing rings in our steer and tag axles. Pretty much the same idea as the beads only they are in their own tube mounted to the inside of the wheel.

Looked up kevlars for the new ride today, 35s are $60 more than 33s.....will be a tough decision

really? at discount tire 35s were $20 cheaper than 33s. yes, you read that correct. and KM2s were a dollar cheaper than the kevlars in the 35" flavor. the demand for 33s is probably higher.

Or that powder stuff. Equal?

When I was hauling cars, we changed our own tires and didn't use anything.

I have never seen any type of balancing material in the tires on the french fry tires.

I've never seen a balance ring either.

That's all I know.

We run equal in our steer tires and I run it on all corners of the 19.5's on the Dodge.

ive been running beads and various other media in large tires since about 2006 and have been very happy. where brian's balls win is the lack of degradation compared to other substitute media. the airsoft bb's are great, but after a lot of street miles they turn to powder. the stuff brian has stays together better and lasts longer, anything over 33" that sees wheeling time should be balanced with media, weights get ripped off and more than once ive spun wheels inside of tires, rendering the weights that were left useless

because of cost pricing, the difference for us here is like 3 dollars.

rew has been bouncing back and forth for a long while now.


i went 35s

he says today...:scottm:

 

[XJ&CHZ4ME]

Rew needs 35's......i havd a great time with his axles and 35's. It was still a good enough balance for daily driving amd there was enough power and porper use of 4LO to be great on the trails.

Cheese "should have kept the axles now I think about it" Man

speaking of tires and everyone running either BFGs or GYs. amd i going to be the 1st guy here wheeling these?

i dont think anyone has them, but if im wrong...reviews?

 

[Fore Wheeler]

Checked with our mechanic to be sure I wasn't giving bunk info, and yes, we don't balance our tires.

 

[Smash Hole]

Those grabbers are heavy!

Also all the bros out here run them on their brophy trucks.

That's all I know about them
