Russian Offroading Video - Tires?

Ok so by far my favorite video on the entire net is this http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...36699&q=laDoga

which we've all seen cause its been posted a million times. So after watching it through a few times I started to look at things like how big the trucks were and what kind of tires. From what I saw the trucks looked like they were on 35's-40's. Yet when I looked at what kinda of tires I saw I noticed they looked like "mini" tractors. Anyone ever seen these before? Military tires maybe? The 37" goodyear light assault military's comes to mind but I'm not sure exactly what they look like.

That's what I was thinking was Kubotas. They have some pretty small tires. I've seen them real wide " Ditchwhich style" also which I notice alot of mud bogger guys like to use if they have the HP to float on top.

Yeah, they are tractor tires, pretty much only good for mud, would suck on street, and in the rocks, because they have pretty much no sidewall flex!

Yeah just curious... I've never seen a rock before out here in Jersey. Besides if i wanted serious tires I'd just get some LTB's or Boggers.
