I’m still learning all this off road stuff and I’m curious if I run helium in my tires will my buggy just float across the mud holes?
Also using helium in my tires should help when rock climbing because the tires should just float up and over the rocks, right?
I’d appreciate any and all input on this subject.
Thanks.

Sounds logical and all but with all that Helium your buggy may float upside down so I might suggest installing your snorkel towards the bottom just to be safe. nomofosho.

Does it have to be OEM Honda lead or will fleaBay lead work?
Lead based paint poured into the valve stem of the tire and then baked in the oven at 450 degrees for a hr will give you the weight you need. Dont forget to ware a mask when doing so! I was watching TV and some old Dr with a scratchy NY accent told me to ware one when doing pretty much anything so I guess we should so we dont get viral Aids right 🤷‍♂️

I don’t have a mask, and I don’t want to use my last pair of clean underwear so…
I can just use dirty underwear right?
The way I got it figured is dirty underwear will filter better than clean underwear, plus I’ll need that clean pair of underwear next week for sure.

You need to talk to Howard Hughes, I think @Backwoods might have his number!
