Hi

Im thinking about to upgrade the wheels and tires on my Gen8

Everybody on the internet always just talks about "2.2 tires on my truck" blah blah what the hell!

2.2 is the size of the wheels!, outer diameter of the tires is what matters!


So you guys that have larger size tires on your Gen8 what Width/Height are you running ?

please post tire specs and photos :)


Im thinking about Pro-Line Interco® TSL SX Super Swamper® 2.2" tires in G8 compound, they are Height: 5.40" (137mm) Width: 2.05" (52mm) for 2.2 Wheels

the stock tires just dont fill the wheel wells vary good and look funny in my opinion i did run 2.2 hyrax tires 5.75" they fit good but the center of gravity was way to high and the performance suffered from it i have found the 5 inch tall tire is the sweet spot for me anyway but there are only a few tires in that size right now im running chineese knock offs the austar super swampers clones there 130mm or 5.1" tall the only other tires i know in that size range are the pitbull xor 5.25 and pit bull bazerkers at 5.1 i might be missing a few but theres not alot in that size range
