FlyB0y Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Ok, so I don't know how else to get closer to stock gearing other than shriking the tires, and I saw some 14" Trac Loader tires in the bed of a guy's PU the other day check out this link! Untill I can do something along the lines of 4.44's or something (not concidering T-case an option at this time), these look like some really good options for off-road only tires ... of course the problem is you need to carry extra wheels or trailer your off-roader, but just imagine these babys off-road! The tires at the bottom of the list are the ones I am talking about size - 25x8.5-14 NHS (too bad you can't take them on the road ... oh well, might be able to get away with it in town at least ) Here's the link: http://www.titanstore.com/store/specbook.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyB0y Posted March 11, 2006 Author Share Posted March 11, 2006 Hmmm here's a better link with more details on the tires ... looks like it needs a 7" wide rim ... but if you have the 6-lug conversion, the wheel I saw appeared to have 6x5.5 ... http://www.titanstore.com/store/specbook.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numbchux Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 they dont list price on there site:mad: no they don't, cause every set is custom made for the application right here in northern minnesota. I talked to a guy about making some for the subaru, but let's just say it would be in the 5-digit range Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zefy Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 i was looking at the ATV tires on there... i know its been discussed many many times before but it says the weight rating is around 480lbs... now is that for one tire or for all 4??? a suby isn't far off from that... i've seen off-roaders use tracter type tires before... i got some vids that are absolutely awesome... best non-suby vids i got! in the first vid you'll just kinda go... oh my... oh my... OH NO HE DIDN'T! then you'll laugh...:-p (poor landrover...) http://recolo.org/images/RussianMuddingVid.wmv http://www.iauto.lv/4x4video/trapenes_purvi.wmv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

subiemech85 Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 the titan looks just like the OLD firestone town and country, which were also available studded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyB0y Posted March 14, 2006 Author Share Posted March 14, 2006 the titan looks just like the OLD firestone town and country, which were also available studded How did they do on snow and ice? That's annother reason the TSL isn't ideal for me in Montana, something like 4 - 6 mons out of the year, the places I want to go wheel'n are covered in Ice and snow, so a mud tire is only needed in about 30% of the places I go, and if I can get more of an agressive ice/snow tire that can handle a bit of mud too should be best for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subarian Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 mattracks are VERY cool but VERY expensive. A buddy of mine checked about 4 years ago, and if I remember right, it would have been in the neighborhood of 15 grand for his 4X4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
