Title: Boggers vs tractors
Post by: Boggen Joe on February 23, 2013, 01:40:58 PM
Whats better pros and cons of a 40-44 cut and uncut bogger vs a 40-44 tractor tire?
I been looken at tires and been thinken of runner a 40" bogger cut or 44boggers uncut
The 40" boggers are like 40lbs lighter than a 44
But been seeing some tractors forsale around 40-45" tall but like 10" wide
Wound those work good like boggers? I'm runner 1 tons with 4:88s

your truck I think would like uncut 44s or cut 40s and Id say 44s cause they are taller so you can go deeper lol but mabye 2 44 boggers and 2 44 tsl? I ran that set up once and loved it best all around set up I have ever ran. and with tsl up front you could aways cut the rear 44 for more bite and the front wont break as much with tsl

We run 40s 44s and tractors, the tractors will give you more ground clearance, your not gonna spin a tractor tire like you can a 44, they will dig you through alot of p00. we like our 44s for play bogs. As far as them being hard on one tons? we broke 2 driveshafts in 3 years and the boys beat the hell out it. Its hard to know what you want till you have tried them all

I agree with the Bogger/TSL combo.  Keeps your front end together.

With your truck... 44 Boggers in the front is going to break stuff. 

I would skip the 40s for sure and go to 44s.

I also agree that tractor tires are just no good for 1 tons... they bite to hard.

By reading your project build your 388 looks pretty healthy, and youve got good gears... Id run 44" boggers,  then later if you want to cut em drop in some chromoly shafts and let her eat!

Cut boggers are the best. But I would choose nice tractors unless money is no option for you because tractors last a lot longer than a bogger or a cut bogger will. For the same reason I wouldnt ever cut a bogger because they dont last as long as an uncut bogger. I honestly dont have money to buy new tires every few years
how do you figure they don't last as long cut vs non cut?

Not enough to make this much of a difference. Its pretty damn noticable

most guys I know with cuts still look new and have been run for years. are you driving them on the road? cause thats not legal and will eat the tires

Cuts might dig harder or run circles around my 39.5 uncuts but i know a truck that has been running the same 39.5 boggers uncut for 15 years or more and still 80% tread!
