Canada Day (First time wheeling this summer!)
Well, Finally got out to do a little wheeling after working most of May (my limited spare time) on my turbo set up and working every day of June (friggin busy at work). Went out to the local trail to test out the 36's, and man do they grab ruts. I never aired down my Ltbs ever since I blew the bead my first time wheeling them, but I had the TSLs down to 10psi up front and something a bit lower in the back and seemed like it was unstopable. Plus the D-50 set up makes even idling over stuff seem easy, as the little turbo seems to even work at idle. Here are a few pics, went out with a few old broncos.
Cheers,
Deny

I got them though a buddy through his work, cost me around 1000 after tax for 4. not bad for 36inswampers. I still have the 33 TSLs(cost me 920), been trying to sell them on bc4x4 and the local paper for a while now, but no one seems to want them. all I want is to get most of my money back, but even at a bargan price of 950 including shipping (ill be loosing about 100) no one seems to want them, guess there is just not high demand for brand new swampers. So if you want some 33 tsls, they are yours for $800 bucks if you come pic them up.
Cheers,
Deny

33x12.5-15s? If they'll fit on stock rims, you may have a deal. I know some guys have run the radials in that size on stockers.
I'll be up that way late July, and hope to get in on some wheeling. If you still have them then, I'll bring my rims and we'll just have to have a look see.

yup, 33x12.5x15 I'm not sure if they will fit on stock rims, I know it's been done. my 36x12.5 are on 8in rims and they were a bitch to get on the rim (seemed too narrow for the rim), but now seems like they are a little bulged in the center of the tread, but also the 33X12.5 look a little narrower off the rim than the 36s off rim. I know I got a lot of flack from a few guys on the chat side, but I mounted the 36s, and they did puff out a bit width wise, but they didn't even move a bit hieght wise when mounted on the rim. I'll hold off selling them till you have a look at them.
