simonr Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 I bought a set of Bogger pattern Fedima tyres from 28x4 which measure about 36.5" The sidewalls are a bit stiff which is a mixed blessing. You have to air down to about 10 psi to make them flexible but they will run reasonably well with no air pressure at all (puncture or separated bead). Best of all - they were fantastic value. Worth a look at the very least! Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sutty_32 Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Depending what competition your doing your 285 insas would probably do the job! We use them (along with quite a few other trucks) in the LRS challenge and they are great. If they aren't worn they are pretty tall and do have some nice big lugs. If you can afford to go a bit bigger then it is better, but some competitions limit the tyre size your allowed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were the tyres i originally wanted as, i really cant afford swamp boggers:( Are they the ones that are 35's listed on the site? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowie69 Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Are they the ones that are 35's listed on the site? If you hover over it shows mounted diameter, at 36.6" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
