Pepe on 37's?

[Trollhole]

May become a reality next week.

I've got a connection on 7 BFG Krawler uncut 37x 12.5 x 17s 4 that have been treaded and 3 that haven't been touched. All have never seen a rim. He want's 100 a piece for them and that includes the patterns and the tread cutter. I've currently got 33x 12.5 x 15s and might just keep them for around town and use the krawlers for the fun stuff. What do you think. 37s on pepe. I'm getting the tires tuesday no matter what since they normally sell for 300 and up. I could problaly sell 2 or three and have enough money for some 17 inch rims. My head is swimming. 37's are big and means newfields will be in my future.

you will need a ladder to get into the 40 now ........... sweet find!!!! I might be a little jealous

 

[Capt. Jim]

Nice tires there, Troll. I think they'll look good on your truck and you will always welcome additional ground clearance. What R&P's are you you Running?

 

[tabraha]

Jump on them. That's a good deal.

 

[Hard40]

Too good to pass up. This is the deal I've been looking for.....

looks like a sweet deal. Do they have any 35's of any type for that kind of price??

Yeah thats what I'm worried about. I've got 4.11s. Might need to switch those. But then the 33's for the street might have high speed issues.

Not that I know of. I'll ask though.

 

[Land Speeder]

Woh! and Wow! $100 for a Krawler??? those are never under $275 each!
I'd go to 37's for this price.

I don't believe krawlers come in 35's but the MT's do. The lowest those go retail is $160 each for a 35" (walmart price)

 

[ClemsonCruiser]

I am fairly sure they make 35" krawlers one of the heep guys here on campus has them...... they are 35x13.5

Awesome. Has that heep person had them for a while? I wanted these a long time ago and they had any size you wanted as long as they were 37's
You've seen my front slicks haven't you? I think this weekend's Toyota Jamboree was their last ride. Time to get 2 new BFG MT's to match the rear.

Man, those 37's on your 40 will be awesome, Marshall!! Can't wait to check it out!

Capt. Jim brings up a great question. I drove a 40 with 37's and 4.11's before I bought mine. WAY underpowered on the street and with as much time as you spend on the road to get to and from wheeling events, the change is something you might want to consider.

That's why I was so hellbent on finding something with at least 37's already on but ideally 5.29's installed. I can roll 80 mph with no problem...

Keep us updated with the purchase!!!

 

[Trollhole]

Yep I'm thinking the same. I might just turn around the 37's for a quick buck and get 35's. But who knows. I should have pics tomorrow.

go with the 37's you will most likely wish you did in the end

 

[Capt. Jim]

4.88's will do you just fine with those 37's. 4:56's if you want more road manners for the smaller set. I'd definately buy those tires, Marshall.

But if you decide not to run them and want to sell please let me know

 

[Gundy]

SOA and 37s

That's going to be a great match Marshall. Pepe's new shoes.
He's a growing boy. LOL...he'll need 40s 'fore ya know it.
How do you keep coming up with these deals? A gift, it seems.

No way. You'll only want 37's later and you won't be able to get that good of a deal on the meat again. Jump on it Marshall and regear at your convenience. Worst case get the tires and sit on 'em till you get ready to drop the $$$ to regear.

 

[Capt. Jim]

I agree with Tad. Besides, you can always sell 'em to Hard40.

 

[cruiser4life]

Agreed - I def wasn't telling you not to get the 37's, Marshall. That's a deal you can't pass up and your 40 will look awesome with those new shoes like I said.

Was just conveying some of the process I went through when considering 37's and up. Get 'em and re-gear when you can!!
