just to let you guys know, in case you were wondering what tires to get next....

keep this in mind...


this is nearly a 40" tire









- Watching your wheel slip off the bead in several feet of mud;
- Smelling burnt rubber when you try to crawl out;
- Spending all night helping other people get off the trail only to spend the night out with a hillbillie from west virginia...
...and no beer;
- Letting the wheel freeze then driving out ON it;
- Lighting the wheel on fire;
- Winching on the wheel and prying in ways that shouldn't be

A $400 headache...


Taking the tire to TDS and finding out that there was NO Damage AT ALL!!!

$18

Watching said hillbillie run from a burning tire toward the garden hose while yelling, "BAD IDEA, BAD IDEA, BAD IDEA!!!!"

PRICELESS

That's just funny and awesome. Like I said you should send in some pics and the story to Interco as a testimony and have them post it up on their site. Might get a t-shirt or hat or something else small and cheap.

now to get the other tyre fixed.

Good stuff

Woulda been even funnier if he was also on fire - nothing like a burning hillbillie running for a hose...

Good to hear about the tire.

i wish i was there for that !

He did forget to mention the hillbilly bucket brigade.

It was funny when it happened.

AZRedRock used to have a pic of his Jeep on the BFG website, IIRC.
