|
|
|
Hey guys,
ive got a Cummins 6BT powered 90 with uprated axles and 4.1 Ring and Pinions.
to get my gearing back to where it should be without changing the RnPs i want to put it on some 37" rubber
this is what im looking at but no stock for a while so i was wondering where else i could get them!?

37 inch diameter tyres are fitted to a lot of american military vehicles, so you get lots of shortages year round.It's a case of ringing round to see if anybody has got any.The last time i needed 37 inch tyres they came direct from the states.

Easy.255/100R16 Michelin XZL. A set of Wolf rims and you will be well away.New they are just under 37 inches in diameter.
Perhaps they haven't got the looks you after.

BF Goodrich 37" Krawlers @ £522.96 x 5 = £2614.80 or better get 6, £3137.76
How would you like to pay? can we take your card number?
I think not.
(when 6 35" BFG Krawlers will be only £2720.16 !!)

Are they still not available from there.
Have you spoken to them??
I went on with my account,
and they accepted the order all the way up to payment.
Very cheap for 4 wheels and tyres at £212.50 each
(but £255 on the 5th wheel tyre)
35" steel wheel/tyre packages here,
Have you called to enquire about getting 37's from them?

at the Indoor 4x4 show today i found some tyres i liked... still the hunt continues for cheaper suppliers though.
37x12.50x17 on Cooper STTs look good on 17x9 D Mods.
they were £248 a tyre and £55 a rim
so now im guna hunt to try n find it cheaper
