| you might want to look at your tire size again I don't think they make 28in tires for an 8in rim | |

| Yeah, 28x8x8 doesnt make a whole lot of sense. Maybe 28x8x18? Unlikely, but maybe.
What about 18x8x8?
I really like my 27x11x12 Kenda Bearclaws, and i havent even run em yet. Atv tire makers sell tires up into the 31in range, but like others said, not at all for an 8in wheel.
Or break out, or buy a tire groover and turn your turfs into a Vtread or whatever kind of tread you fancy.
Also, if you really do have that much sidewall to play with, beadlocks (or a tube or something) dumped to crazy low psi, you dont need a very aggressive tread with that large a contact patch. Much more flotation than digging. | |
