UPS LOST one of my tires (2 days before the we-rock goldendale comp) I was pissed. Q-tec overnighted me a tire, but due to the memorial day holiday, it came in AFTER the comp. So I just put that BFG on there as a place saver. I couldn't even drive it cause the difference in size and the rear is locked with a detroit. I have 4 tires that match now.

See what brown can do for you! That sucks, Karl. At least you got all 4 matching tires now. I think we were all hoping that it was a wheeling incident....

The only wheeling incident that has happened with the new tires, is they ripped the entire rear axle out of the Jeep on a vertical climb I was attempting. That was my bootyfab engineering at its finest. All fixed now though.

Is that the parking lot at your place? It must be cruel to see a rock wall outside your window everyday just begging to be climbed.

Karl how much air the creepy? looks like you may have a little too much, dirt is just on the center part of the passenger front. A little fly just told me the same thing even though mine have only been 20 miles in 3 months.

The before pictures were at 30 psi, but ZERO miles on them.
The after pictures were at 15psi. I now run them at 12psi and am working my way down to 10psi.
Off road, I run them at 5psi with no problems so far. I did break a bead, but the situation involved would have happened at any psi unless beadlocks were involved.
