Great to see the 40" radial tyres coming out. I guess all the comp rigs there will be running them. Its funny cause I can remember a while back debates on pirate about the ultimate size for comp rigs and alot of people were saying 37s but it seems now that the bigger the better.....just as long as its a radial and its sticky.

It would be a shame to hole one of those beautys out in the scrub and given the crap that we drive over I dont think that a tyre like that would last too long at all.

So TJPete went to SEMA as that is where the debut of the tyres were.....

So TJpete any other tidbits from the show to speak of....BFG krawler in the 39' to 40' range or an anouncement of the tyre and did you buy any production Krawlers as I heard they were to be released there shortly.....or are you scamming some sponsorship for the XRCC in the way of a control tyre etc or am I just plain right off the mone, SPILL.....
