Meaty Beaty Big and Bouncy 35x15.50 Swampers

[Rick]

I wanted more track width and stability, hopefully this will do it.

I'm keeping one MTR for a spare.

 

[Rick]

They are as tall as my 35" MTRs but way wider.

 

[Rick]

I let the air down to 6 pounds and they hold up real well, but lay down a nice foot print. Can't wait to try them out.

For an extra $100 a set they siped the tires for more grip.

They look really really nice. I'm not familiar with that tread pattern which ones are those?

 

[tbomb]

holy crap! looks like you could drive straight up a wall with those meats

 

[Rick]

Swamper SX bias plys. The center lugs are siped.

 

[Hammer]

I want to say a bunch of cuswords starting with

HOLLY ...................

That looks great Rick!

I like them allloooottt!

 

[Hammer]

That is going to make your life so much easier.
My bigest concern with your truck was the width. I thought you had a tendancy to get a little tippy.
The solid front axel helped and these are the iceing on the cake.
Good going.
What backspacing do you have on the rims and what size are they?

I have got a freind who said he would hook me up with a fabbed axel for the swap. He owns a small axel shop in Gilbert.

 

[Rick]

Rims are 15x10s with a "standard" backspace. I believe it's about 3" but quote me on that.

 

[addkev]

To quote Bill and Ted...

" Not worthy, Not worthy"

Those are huge!

 

[TarHeel085]

so how many times have you actually had to pull yourself out with that winch? and good LORD those a huge! what was the width on the MTR's?

 

[Perry]

Tires look AWSOME Rick. Well they still tuck in the fender?

It is always good to go wide if you go high is my motto

 

[Jefe]

holy you bought 'em already!

I'm starting to see a resemblance:

 

[Brian1]

Nice! congrats on your purchase of an awesome set of offroad tires. Those side lugs should make a difference

 

[Rick]

We've used the winch to pull the Dodge out of the sand at Truck Haven We've used it a lot to pull other people

 

[FMExplorer]

Rick,
I've seen those on a few jeeps done here and got instant rubber envy!

Anyhow...

Would love to get them , but gawd - my poor D35 is already b!thc!ng at me for the tires I've got. I need to save for a better front end....

The list goes on - thanks!

[Hammer]

Congrats on the SX's. I love both sets of mine. They are unmatched in strength and traction.

FWIW - From the looks of your picture your tires are grooved not siped.
