I can not make up my mind I am going to order something Monday. I just want to do it right the first time. And I can not find the firestone's anywhere. It would be great to get some feedback. For those of you that don't know I am running a s/c ecotec with a mid shift, 483 ring and pinion acw 6 rib. I have the 15x14" beadlocks off of pipedopes two seater.

I have 16x35x15.50 firestones,,and they are on 12" wheels,,,with those wheels you have the firestone Vtreads would fit best. Many of our sponsors have the firestones 31x15.50x15's,,if your buggy is light you should be good with that ecotec power.

From what I hear from all the guys I've talked to, V-treads on dirt and mud, Boggers on Rock. Taller tires = taller gear = harder on trannys but more clearance.

Well I went ahead and ordered a set of firestones today. And have been talking to interco about making tires specifically for woodsbuggies. I think they are interested. Time will tell.
