Thanks Rick, I appreciate it! Hope they bite good for ya, Marty.
And thanks to you too bucky, you're right, it's a complete waste of time cutting tires if you dont cut em to the chords. They're 6 plies, they got plenty there. We cut 4 ply firestones just as far down and have no problems with them.

I am very pleased with them,,KOKO rocks,, at D&K Halloween I never regretted not running my Vtreads...but remember my buggy is heavy,,long,,and weird. Vtreads are an awesome tire for buggys that can creat wheel speed,,my buggy is too heavy. My boggers suit my buggy very well,,,now I need to learn to drive,,and get better brakes for stopping the bigger tires :oops: ,,it's always something in marty world :cry:

Just remember, those kick ass KYBuggies we saw this weekend were not the first draft. I'm sure they have been refining them for years into the wicked buggies they have become.
