Strictly mud bog truck tire question with outcome video

Running an ext cab 2.7 no bed small tires for a county fair mud run. Question is I have 2 really aggressive tires sxs tires. Front and rear diffs are locked. Should the more aggressive tread go on the front or back? Also if anyone wants a flatbed let me know!

 

Rear always

 

just curious of your thoughts why?

 

I’d be inclined toward front due to weight distribution

 

The truck is RWD before it’s 4x4. More grip in the rear makes sense to me

also assuming you are taking that flatbed off?

 

Why not both

 

A reason to go rear might be avoiding stress on front cv shafts if you really go ham on the throttle. Grippier tires would exacerbate that.

 

Damn. That there is a workin mans truck.

 

flat bed is coming off for the mud run. I only have found these 2 tires locally and im not gonna pour money into this one lol. my thoughts were same as deadbeef with thoughts of cv issues but also may be better to have them up front to pull the truck through. im not sold either way just wanted to see what everyone elses thoughts were.

 

My thought, this is completely ridiculous, please post videos, and put it to a soundtrack

 

its next month but game on son!

 

yes, yes it is. sounds like you don't like to party?

 

This sounds like a good time. I want to see pictures and videos. I remember going to truck bogs as a kid and a 80s toyota on tractor tires destroyed everyone else.

 

ahh let me clarify, my question of reality was not out of hate but elation! in 100% but think super swampers all 4 corners, more versatile in case you need to take it to the store..

Further:

 

I encourage everyone to bounce off the revlimit once in a while. Sounds like fun to me

Turbo sounds cool though lol just left the good tires on the back and probably should have been on the front or even just on one side. Possibly turbo choked engine down, about half way the rpm’s dropped and couldn’t power through

Should have put it in 4lo and drive then when it bogs pull it down to second then first.
