I just got a good deal on a set of 31 x 15 x 15 Terra tires.
Need some input on running them on my buggy.
It's a 1915 rail with a swing axle (with a super diff)
that is street legal, I mostly trail ride in northern Michigan.
I'm gonna have to buy rims,
What is the good and bad on running these tires?
Thanks,
van

For trail riding they are awesome! When the trail gets a little sideways, one side higher than the other, those tires really stick well, better than v-bars. They're ok for hill climbing but v-bars are better. I don't think they are DOT approved for the road though.
