Went out yesterday with some friends...John Warme came down from Orono with the beast. We had a fun group. Nothing crazy, just a good run to the campsite.

I believe they are 14.5's...

I've always said this about my TSL's but it even holds more true for the boggers...
They wear like poop and ride almost as bad...but dear god, they're are like heroin.

They make you feel amazing offroad, they are the best thing ever you think....then you drive them on the road...and it is full on Dope Sickness....Till ya shoot the shit again offroad, then it's all okay....

I'm running 35 x 12.50 SSR's with the ECR flares and a 3" lift with no problems. I've had TSL bias and radials on the truck and definately like the SSR's the best. Never had boggers, so I can't comment on them.

I'll take all the crap from them on road as long as they put out off road. or is it just not worth it? i will probably go with 12.50's.

Marty, do you also have slidders? Do they match up to the end of the flares? Or did you have to trim them too?

I know for long trips John swaps tires (combo between bad wear and noise...sad to waste them on the street...)

Had to trim the sliders back as far as I could to line up with the flares. You need all the room you can get, especially in the rear, even with the flare kit.

Also have 1-1/4" wheel spacers which help with the turning radius.

i'd hate to waste the tread on street too, Having two sets of tires sounds like a great idea, i guess i'll keep the set of my bfgoodrich at's
