All Around Tire Recomendations for Sand to Hardpacked

(how often to check torque)

Did u put some blue thread locker on the bolts? Fixed the issue with both my rigs with bead locks. One time torque. I dont run the ever so popular everyone has Terrabites cuz i like to be different, But it did salve the issues with my Carnivore’s on my Talon and my LT/MT’s on My P1

There was one particularly good thread about the Terrabite’s bead thickness (no idea how to find it). The gap in a bead lock wheel should be an industry standard, let’s say 15mm (just a guess). In that thread, new Terrabite’s were measuring ~16mm, that’s not enough clamping force to keep them from leaking. This is an old memory, but it’s the gist of what was discussed. I hope you got a good set - I believe the Terrabite is a great bang for the buck.

FedEx brought me a present today! (Actually 4 presents), 😁

Been wanting a new set of trail tires and Rockymountainatvmc is giving $100 off a set of Tusk megabites right now so I jumped on it. I was kinda leaning towards 31’s but these don’t come in that size, or they were out. Too good of a deal to pass up. And I like the idea of staying closer to the...

Based on that old thread, it sounds like RM increased the thickness of the beads 1.5 years ago compared to when @PaulF bought them 3.5 years ago. And he didn't say what beadlocks he had installed them on in 2018.

So here's to hoping the current TBs on Tusk beadlocks are an improvement. I'll be checking pressures more often for a while.

If you're running 10 ply my guess is you could probly run them @ 0PSI and you'll still have a stiff tire......😂😂😂

I went with 31x10.50x15 LT Thunderer Trac mud tires. They ride and wear very well and grip like crazy on rocks, hard pack and sand. I put them on stock wheels and did not use spacers. I cannot tell a power loss, but it really helped with the jerky, touchy throttle that the stock 28's allow to happen. Now its a more controlled pedal and less jerky. 8psi front and 12psi rear.

I don’t know, @Hondasxs tried running his at 0 many a time without much luck 😂

Well, I said 0psi not looking like swiss cheese....
