    Looks good Anthony 8) 8)
    Looks like they would rub on full articulation.
    You will just have to lift it up 4 or 6 inches [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img] [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]

    I like it. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]

    Here's the plan.

    You keep spending vast amounts of money on the beast until a couple of years from now you get sick of it being so much fun, and decide to buy a Barina instead.

    Then I swoop in and snatch it up at a bargain price.... 8)

    Regards Glen.

    The brand is Maxxis
    the model Is the Creepy Crawler
    the Size is 37x12.5 LT 16

    they are available in 35 inch and wider 37 inhc also have a 38 inch size. There Bias Plys but have very good flexy sidewall and arnt noisy onroad. But there very soft and I dont reccommend you burn around on road to much [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]

    If any one is interested new they cost anywhere from 360-400 for 35" and anwhere from $440-480 for 37"
    Not cheap but these are a damn good tyre those that are interested in rock, and there good in mud to but mud aint my thing [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img]

    Looking good there Anthony.

    The tyres are not my cup of tea but as long as you're happy with the end result. Just be careful regards to lift you don't want it to be too unstable off-road a-la Nissan/Toyota [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]

    Wonder if they sell them in 16's those crawlers and not too bloody wide :!:

    Very very nice.

    Now if it is written up elsewhere could you show me the thread.

    If not, what diffs are you running & what ratio's to drive 37's.

    and what motor?


    I am still looking for the right Rangie at the moment but after driving a few I reckon they will struggle for power with my 34's never mind 37's.

    Here is a short thread [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img] http://www.aulro.com/modules.php?name=Foru...iewtopic&t=4295

    DIFFS - Currently Maxi drives but am looking to do the toy centre conversion very soon :wink:

    Ratios - Currently bog stock [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img] and if anyone reacond the rangies dont have the power they definately have the torque, I would happily keep these ratios power wise, but onroad fuel consumption is bad (Only under 30%+ load) it can idle around town all day and not use any fuel :wink: And offroad I need lower gearing for decents.

    If you get a rangie and you want to turn 34" rubber i reccomend an EFI V8 (3.5 is big enough) with a nice 2-2.5" exhaust (single, not twin) with sum extractors (i got pacemaker atm).

    Sure my rangie isnt a freain sprots car onroad but thats not what i baught it for [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img] I am happy doin 55 in a 60 zone or 100 in a 110 zone, but dont be fooled I can hit speeds in excess of 140 in its current trim :wink:

    For the everyday 4wder I think the power is enough and sum people must just get greedy, although for comp work I am gonna be fitting a Supercharger (currently sitting in the garage) or a 4.6L engine [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]
