Get a much better grip on rock etc when mounted backwards.

Oh and I think it is far from a 'theory' anymore as those who have used em this way will attest.

Just don't get stuck in the mud with em on this way! lol Prolly still pretty good though not as they where designed.

This is an idea developed by the French military for their personnel carriers, for obvious reasons.

Wouldn't have em on backwards in the mud channel all the mud to the centre of the tyre making little mountains of mud under each wheel therefore allowing you to levitate above a bog hole. :roll:

I think someone should test this sound theory of mine :D :rofl:

Bogged you got the name and the claws haven't you?
