I seriously doubt that will happen. But you might be able to roll right over Bruce.

Joe, do you drive the Krawlers on road? I would imagine that pig would be murderous on tires for the pavement.

For the record, I have toasted only 1 MT/R. It was doing basically nothing on a trail in Colorado. If I were a betting man, I would say it was the conclusion to a slash that I got on Martinez. Those rocks in Arizona are not tire friendly.

I'm currently running 35" BFG ATs on the road and hauling the Krawlers but since I had to relocate my fuel tank to the bed, which made me relocate the power tank to the side of the bed, I'm not sure if those 4 monsters will fit back there now - if they don't, I'll just drive them to where ever, as they are road friendly (radials) and if I sipe the lugs (makes for cooler asphalt running), maybe I'll get three or four years out of them.

I was pretty impressed w/ MT/R sidewall strength- they aren't SX's, but a ton tougher than BFG M\T's. I'd sure like to try the Krawler T/A's, but at double the cost, it ain't gonna happen...........

For a 37, Krawlers vs. regular BFG MT's is $20 at 1010tires.

For 35's it is about $50 or so.

37's for a 15" rim are cheapest in MT/R's.

A man can dream, can't he?
