What’s hilarious is that you can tell that they’re soo big that one couldn’t fit in that Budget truck.

That’s awesome. I grew up around equipment that used tires that size. Definitely warps your sense of what big is. I complain how much it costs when I have to buy tires for my truck, hate to see the bill for a set of those bad boys. Just remember, white walls out baby!

and whats even funnier is 4 of those tires are probably worth more than that budget truck….it is a budget truck after all…..
My dad worked in the tire business so I didn’t have a sandbox I had a tractor tire filled with sand! Coolest kid on the block.

I’d love to just see one of those dump trucks in person, I’ve seen them on TV and it’s just hard to imagine the scale of those things.

We slap tires like that on the skidsteer at work, well sorta. Best picture I can find of it (I was in the bobcat taking a pic of something on the pump so you can’t see it very well). You have a quarter of the tire on the steel frame for scraping the organic fertilizer out of the alleys. [External image (uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com), not copied]
