Here is the campfire buggy! This was with 29.5 swamplites and 4 inches of lift. It has plenty of power. Top speed is gone. It will run 45 to 48 with the 32's on it. I had it hitting 67 with 27's on it. I have done MAJOR dry and wet clutch mods along with custom machined sheeve. Motor mods also.....cam piston port work carb ignition....etc etc. But it is still reliable. I will bust a rear cv from time to time. It has 3000 miles on it with about 1500 of those on 29.5's in the mountains. I have not been out on the 32's except around the neigborhood. I will know after this weekend. I am going to the mountains tomorrow morning to ride for 4 days. I also keep 2 complete sets of custom extended length axels in the toy hauler in case of an explosion.

They ride like chit on hard pack under 9 mph. You will want to have your mouth closed for fear of loosing a filling or biting your tongue. 10 and up is like glass. Its the price you have to pay to be cool. I did not build this to offer the plushest ride on the road or hardpack. If it is soft at all or sand....they are fine. I also have 7 lbs of air in them. I am going to air down to about 2 lbs and see what that does. The heavier machine helps alot compared to a 4 wheeler. The grizzly you had did not have a smaller version of this tire. This is the only size made in the gorilla silverback which is 32" It probably had hi lifter outlaws on it. The tread is similar but nowhere near as deep as these.
