Gotta love dirt every day. I'm in love with this and now I'm contemplating building a monster truck. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKGdw5DJTXg

I watched that last night, I'm glad it's not only me that desires a stupid loving truck like that. It's glorious.

Only $950 a tire, bargain. At 208lbs a piece, that's only about $4.50 a pound, so not too bad.

Cage posted:That truck reminded me of a crazy Icelandic guy with a first gen explorer I've been lusting over some 445/65R22.5 bridgestone L315s for the blacklung.(and maybe my pickup)  Over $1k a tire, but they would probably outlive the bus. the tires on there now are 11 inches wide, these would be 18. Could do a single tire on the rear, and they would probably fit on the front without too much complaint. soooo meaty.

How do you even manage a tire that big solo? I can just imagine calling my buddies over to help me take a tire off so I can check brake pads.

Put the other three tires on dollies, leave the tire where it is and move the truck.

It's probably going to be paid for by dodge. If the dort wasn't dead, i could see them doing dart vs dort with a $5k budget to make it faster. scuz posted:Had an insane thought: if they're unmodding that Lancer, who better than Roadkill to turn it into a full-on drag strip/race car? I really doubt they'll be shipping anything overseas, unless the general mayhem is doing a aussie car show tour or something. it would be cool to see it beat up on supergramps.

The weight sucks (IIRC my 11.00x20 NDCCs are around 250 a tire mounted on steel 2pc wheels with tubes) but the good thing about tires that big is that the lugs are a handful of rubber each, and the tread voids are huge, so you can use a lug on each side as a handle and pull it against your chest. I mean, this is a 15" alloy wheel on top of the 395/85R20 Michelin XMLs I still haven't put on my truck:  ~130lb without wheel, figure the wheel is another 80-100lb if it's steel. It's a good thing they come with handles all the way around.
