Title: Do tractor tires take the fun out of boggin?
Post by: HockeyGuy on March 13, 2012, 12:25:19 PM
Just curious, seems like with tractor tires it would almost take the fun out of bogging? Ive seen tractor tires crawl through holes most trucks get stuck in. Plus they leave such big ruts unless you have 5,000 feet of lift your gonna get framed anyways. I have some boggers I just got and they are pretty impressive but some of the old mud holes I use to go through are not ever a challenge anymore. Just curious what everyone else though.

Can't say I've ever rode in a truck with tractor tires but I've watched a lot. If you spin your boggers fast enough you won't ever touch the bottom. Lol it's all about having fun, you just have to balance your wallet to ability of the truck. The less money you have, the more your probably going to get stuck but not necessarily the less you will have fun. Just sayin...

Tractors r fun if ya have a motor and good axles. Unless u enjoy changing axle shafts. Wouldn't trade mine for nothing. They rock.

I'd say its a matter of preference...but it does suck when they play in the ares smaller tired vehicles use and all your left with is big old ruts. example-the mounds place is full of spots that will swallow the average vehicle.

ask herb and  mudman  who would  come pull them out.  and  i didnt have  tractor tires.

It's kind of a weird question...I guess it all depends on your budget and what you like to do with your truck.  If you drive on the street, you don't really have much choice.  I'll bet that a lot of guys that trailer their rigs would have monster truck tires if they could afford them and had the room to store and haul them.  I guess it's all a matter of perspective.  The truck I'm driving now, I bought for my son to drive to and from school and to the mounds, so I'm looking for a driver that he can play pretty hard with.  When I build mine, I want it to be along the same lines, but BARELY streetable and more of a bogger.  Either way, we need DOT tires, so tractors are out.

I've rode in tractor tired trucks and they can be fun, it depends alot on driving style, gearing, engine power, and that type of stuff  as to which would  be the most fun on any paticular rig.  I've had people ride in my jeep with either my 35's or my 42's on that have there own tractor tired rigs that do good and when they rode in my jeep the were all smiles and they then understood the meaning or wheel speed . So I guess it's personal preferance.

tractors are not more money than boggers....new 44 boggers cost what 750 plus each....i can get 12.4x24 (44") new tractors for 280 each.....i run boggers....my choice...both are cool......each to their own...just have fun doing it.
