We got the part about the height but what about width? are they 26-12-12 or 26-11-12 or 26-10-12....front/back dimensions are required seeing how you took all that time taking damn pictures!!! This is something we expect from a man of your caliber.

...Your Readership :lol:

OMG...I can't believe out left out that critical information. May the lashes of 1000 whips crack upon back for such an obvious transgression. :wink:


The Fronts are 26 x 9 and rear are 26 x 12. The stock tires were 26 x 8 and 26 x 11, for complete information.

My minions are now fully informed. :)

The airpressure was 1/10th of 1 lbs +/- from 4LBS, using the US System of measurement. Taking into account variances due to the distance from the Equator, 3.99lbs per tire, front/back/left and right would be accurate.

how's that?


Seriously...I took the pictures in Sac...at 4LBS....I went up to 6,040FT and they were 6lbs. I lowered them back down to 4lbs and frankly..I felt like if they were rock crawling, I could go lower. I'll probably give 3lbs a whirl, and see how they do.

The tires held up amazingly well at that pressure.

Those really look nice. But damm, the take offs look pretty nice too. Those look way more aggressive than the Dunlop's that came on ours. What brand and style are they?

Tires? Those are just the Maxxis Bighorns and the ITP Series 7 rims. So far...I'm very impressed.

I know the new ones are Bighorns. I was wondering about the ones you took off.
