Funny how the Yokos look narrower than the MTRs

The Kenda 33x9.5 RT’s are by far my favorite Cruiser tire in recent years.. selling snd and installing a ton of them.
So glad this size is available again.

Kenda Klever MT 35x10.50's on +25 17" Icon beadlocks. Really like this setup on a 100.

The tread extending onto the sidewall probably helps a lot when you air down. It would be interesting if someone made a tire that had super aggressive large sidewall lugs with a less aggressive tread on the tire to provide good grip in soft terrain from the sidewall without being
incredibly noisy on the road as the lugs on the sidewall don't make contact with the pavement...... You heard it here first.
You need a set of TSL Thornbirds! Kidding, terrible tires on the pavement and loud!
They are 33 3/4 tall, (see pg.#11 post #211) of this thread.Cool! Get some measurements when they're on wheels, 32 psi. Curious what they measure out to
I wonder what those Kenda Kleevers 33X9.5 RT’s that Cruiser Matt posted on this page (post #728) check out to be in height ?

@cruisermatt what was your height on these 33 X 9.5 RT’s just out of curiosity ?
(mounted on your vehicle, with 32 lbs. of pressure in ‘em ?) & what kinda price for ‘em if ya don’t mind ?

I don’t have time or care to measure if a advertised 33” tire is 32.5” or 33.5”

I install drain tile in farm fields, years ago we built a truck for the sole purpose of hauling and unrolling rolls of tile. If we’re not in the mud we’re on our way to it.
Super swamper thornbirds with zero tread, absolute racing slicks, but those sidewall lugs would go absolutely anywhere. That truck hardly ever got stuck.
ETA we never aired down, I believe airing down increases your contact patch lengthwise anyway.

Just came in here to verify that a 38x11.50 on 8.5 wide wheel is indeed tall and skinny.
Going,…going,….gone….

Ho, I simply used these wheels and tires for a test and to drive around a bit.
Afterwards, I installed my old 255/85R16s on the 5x150 steelies for another test, this time for a short 1000km expedition. My 100 is running on 285/75R16s on original Toyota aluminum wheels.
My Dunlops were mounted on other 6x139 rims to eventually go on my 60. My 60 is running on 285/75R16s on 70-series rims.
In short, I’ve got spare sets that I don’t really use much yet…
