Well this worked well...

So Im out with one of my friends from on here (blackandgold) on sunday just messing around and testing out my new super swampers. Well we ride down into this settement pond. He tells me if I really wanna test my tires, that I should go along the side and try to cut one of the corners on the pond. Well I figured why not cause even if I get stuck, he could pull me out. Well I hit the corner at about 15mph in 4wd high and did a nose dive into the mud. He almost got me out but just couldnt quite do it. Its ended up taking him and one of my other friends with a 5.4l f150 to get me out. So about 4 hours later, I got out. I used $50 in a spray booth, 2 hours of washing with my hose at home and washed it for about 2 hours on monday and tuesday and Im still getting mud out of it. Well maybe 40'' swampers will do it. Wish I knew how to post pics though.

Nice pics.

It's hard to tell, but what tires do you have?

6'' pro comp lift with a 3'' body. Plus the coil spacers I have now. The truck is being set up so if I wanted I could run 44's(4.88 gears, maybe 5.13's). But I originally only wanted 37's or 38's but now Im thinking 40's just cause its not a daily driver and only gets driven on the weekend.

people don't know that superswamper makes different tires

most people call the boggers superswampers, so there is a misconnection.
