    Wow. Anyone know how much (if any) lift we'd need for that beast of a tire?

    I like!

    That looks like a serious offroad tire. I really like the tread on that tire. The side wall of the tire need to be more aggresive looking too though (imho). It would be much to large of a size for our VX, but just about right for our Amigo project. Can't wait to see the road tests. Makes me want to get the 4wheel and suv magazine they are talking about and read about this one.

    The largest tire you can go with a VX is 36" I believe, BOARZHEAD would know. He just found after lifting it 6" that there is a major part in the way if you go any bigger than 36", So if you want those tires your going to have to go crazy modding it. BOARZHEAD could tell you more about this.
