casey · 07-23-2003, 03:04 AM

Man what kind of lift do you need for those, man I'd need an elevator to get in

meathead95 · 07-23-2003, 06:11 AM

wonder what kind of gear youd have to run to turn those

VTKidder · 07-23-2003, 06:21 AM

Cripes! Those things are bigger 'n dad's!!!

*Randy70C-10* · 07-23-2003, 08:51 AM

Hmmmm, either you're 4 feet tall, or that's the 49 inch tire you mentioned.

lol

Mudder · 07-23-2003, 09:27 AM

I priced a set of Mickey Thomson Claws yesterday. 46 inch and they were like 430 a tire plus the taxes. I'm pretty sure that one will go for over 500 per tire. (Unless you have a place you can deal with)........

**Yukon Jack** · 07-23-2003, 09:30 AM

Now there is a tire that could actually use an 18" or 20" rim. Still would have huge sidewalls even with those size rims.

I hear you on the gear issue, but I would be thinking more about the stopping issue. Those are gonna weigh a lot and you better have a very good brake system to be able to handle that much tire.

Mudder · 07-23-2003, 09:32 AM

The 46" claw comes in at just over 100 lbs. The tire is quiet a bit bigger than that.

MAC67 · 07-23-2003, 09:42 AM

HEY RANDY 70-C10,,THATS NOT ME LOL,, thats just the pic i found of them,, and yukon they do come in a 17" or 20" rim also, hey mudder sorry about the other day, he called and said he is sending the check,, sorry

Mudder · 07-23-2003, 09:56 AM

Mac there is no problem...... Thats the way it works

Would have like the drivetrain off the other truck and the motor from that truck LOL.... Was very nice meeting you tho.... You can keep an eye out for me something LOL..... You know what I am after now.

MAC67 · 07-23-2003, 09:58 AM

bouncytruck · 07-23-2003, 11:25 AM

You either have to have a huge lift or do a lot of cutting to fit those tires! Where do you keep a spare?

Mudder · 07-23-2003, 11:30 AM

How could you afford a spare? LOL

GreenMystChevy · 07-23-2003, 03:08 PM

You say that they're DOT legal yet I thought the only thing allowed on the roads were 44" or smaller. Or does that just vary from state to state? I just figured, what would be the point of DOT approved when you can't drive 'em on the road anyways.

That would be pretty sweet driving wtih those things, everyone would fear you!
