Giant agricultural tires (1 Viewer)

what kind of options are there to mount massive tires on wheels that bolt up to a stock six lug pattern?

if a modified stock axle is a poor platform, i would get the next best thing, a set of rockwell axles.

i seen some wheels bolted together with two, somtimes three parts.

anyone done this?

You are talking the stazworks rims which are similar to hummer rims.

For big ag tires, go rockwell..

I you put ag tires on toyota axles you might as well burn yourself at the stake...you'd get flamed

I vote for rocks w/ ag tires

Just because they are bigger does not answer my question. Let me rephrase the question: What kind of wheeling do you do that you think big Ag tires will have advantages over more common off-road tires?

Ag Tires are low speed Tires, we regularly build wheels for 60 X 50 tires and you think boggers are out of balance, imagine a 15000lb machine hopping off the ground at 25mph

use rockwells with 20" rims russian tractors have many sizes of 20" tractor tires that fit right on cant drive it on the road but here in the pa mud it will outrun any boogers or other street mud tire made you can creep through stuff other people are killing there trucks to make it through if you use a toy frame box it good broke 1 in half keep in mind these are play toys and have to be trailered also been known to drive over cars for fun good luck on whatever you decide

Brook has said before that if he wants to he can snap D60 front ends at will. Shaft, knuckle, whatever.
