NC has the best rigs. Did you guys see the JEEP Masher? Also in NC.











Also on 52s. They are Michelin brand also.

Those are big toys. So big that when I scrolled down and saw those pics, I fell out of my chair. Scary big.


Sort of what I always dreamed of whenever I go to a monster truck show.

And some people think my rig is big. THIS is big!

Glad to see it out wheeling, and not being used as a show or marketing truck.

At some point you have to ask yourself, "Are these tires too big?". He will reach the limits of his flex because his tires will hit the fenders. It seems like he would be better served with 42's or something.


I wonder how much more flex he has in that, not too much I bet, but yet, I could flex on that right now...

Pointless to have tires THAT big.

42s would suffice and take him anywhere. Compensating for a small wally perhaps is he?

Those things are huge. At some point you just have to ask yourself, have I gone big enough?? I mean 52's? At some point this has to stop...but not yet. Love it... But I do have to agree....

I was glad to see a rig with huge tires getting wheeled for a change instead of show. Granted, I think its a little overkill too & to have all that weight in a rollover without a cage or exo is scary.

Those are the tires we use on our 7-ton MTVR trucks in the Marine Corps. The official size is 16.0R20
