Non-Highway tires

duderhimer · Dec 5, 2018

Well, I did a little digging and couldn't find anyone silly enough to mount a tractor type of tire on their EB, I'm sure it's been done but looking for someone that's figured out the best configuration.

What I'm wanting to do is buy dedicated set of rims and a set of tractor style tires for off road only, lets call it a poor mans UAV. I already have the 1974 Bronco, I'm looking to make it a go out in the woods or a muddy field to pick up my 200 lbs deer so I don't have to drag it several thousand yards, I'm getting older and more out of shape, I just drug one several hundred yards and don't want to do it again.

Prefer a skinny tire, good chance I'll be in deep snow plus I'm in the process of moving to a larger piece of land.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Your best bet is going to be in a 16” variety

Something about like the front tires on my Kubota L245DT, fronts. Tractor tires about the same size as a regular truck tire. Expect the offroad traction to break parts.

I have some equipment with both 16" and 18" lug tires.

Learning how to quarter your game in the feild will be a game changer. You don't even have to gut the animal. You can buy one of the plastic sleds that roll up small. Drill some holes down the sides, add some cord and a harness and walk out with your gun in your hand. Or use a back pack, single or double wheel cart. Anyone that hunts with me knows I'll have no part of taking out animals whole.

That was my thought. Tractor type tires might require tractor type axles or more so drivetrain

I don't drag deer anymore....just quarter them in the field and pack out

Those are some of the best Off road tires ever made!!! Back in the day I had them on my 300 honda four wheeler and my hunting truck, you couldn't stop them untill the frame was setting on the ground and tires spinning in the air. Wish they made some different sizes now.

Old Army jeep tires. Worthless on snow packed roadsl but great in the deep stuff. I have a set on 16" rims.

Check out the Ground Hawg tires. I ran them a lot when I lived in Michigan. They have tread a lot like a tractor and get around real good. Ken

Ive run the Gateway Buckshot mudder P78-16 on my bronco. There dang near a tractor tire. They disappeared for a while but have come back in a 15 and 16 '' size. They will dig and keep on digging through ruts, skidder trails, snow. Ive used them and ride rough on pavement and like to wander a bit to. But there the ticket when you turn off the paved road into the mud.

There are several different agressive offroad tires that will do what you want tall and skinny is usually the key. Another option is tire chains they work pretty good in the mud. 16in wheels may be the way to go as there is always the old traction lug tire that work real good in mud and you can hit the hiway with them.

Just be careful on how tall you go make sure you have the power to spin them as usually you need some tire speed to clean out the lugs this even applys to tractor type tires.

Are you talking AG tires?

399strokerEB · Dec 8, 2018

What size tire are you currently running? The new tsl sx ll comes in some tall and skinny sizes. I'm running the 37 X12X15

duderhimer · Dec 16, 2018

Awesome help guys, I love this forum, always get what I'm looking for. Well you talked me into a real aggressive set of mud tires. This way I can still jump on the highway when necessary to get to the next hunting spot so we can use it to get someone else's deer out if we want. Thanks again.

I like them for what they are designed for, not the tire you want for a DD but you cant beat them for a off road tire here in the SE
