Is anyone ruunning the 38x13.5r17 Patagonia Milestar MT on a 80 series yet?
I have heard nothing but good reviews on these.
I want to go bigger than a 37" but a 40" tire is to big of a jump for me.
The only other tire I am looking at is the 39x12.5r17 Kanati. brosky just got a set of those...

I saw this the other day on Instagram, I though it was interesting. If anyone has more info or pics please post.
It reads they raised the inner fenders 7 inches. Sounds like a lot of work to get there. I'll guess frame height would be approx 19" which is just 1" lower than mine.
