OK, can somebody tell me why you would publish a size, and then publish what the size actually is. That is just ridiculous. HELLO!

I agree, but perhaps there is some reason this happens?

CRAP !!! ... I had a reply all typed up & our server crashed .... damn place !

Ok, this is kinda what I wrote ....

I've read someplace, that tire sizes are actually measured from inside the tire mold ?? .... and I have no idea if this is true or not.

And maybe a dealer decided to tell his customers what the tires actual size is instead of listening to them scream at him later that he sold them mismarked tires ??

But I blame the tire manufactures for false advertizing ... but they get away with it ....

And, I have the wife convinced, this much "=====" ..... is actually, this much "==========="

WHAT ??

Later ...

I agree Gunny, it is false advertising. I just wonder why someone, with so much at stake, would advertise this way? I have a lot of strong opinions, but I'll let them fly for now.

Part of the problem is ..... all tire makers do the same thing ..... so it's the consumer that pays .....

I'd like to hear how they wear. The swamplites wear fast from what I've seen.

I think chubbz95 will report that they wear great. My younger Bro has some on his Can-Am 2-up, so he's haul'in a lot of weight all the time. He's been in rocks, some mud, snow, hard pack & on some asphalt ... he has about 600 or 800 miles on them so far & they still look almost new.

Next time I see him, I'll try to get a mesurement fo both of ya.

chubbz95 ... if you do get some, remember, they run small. If you want a 25 inch tire, you'll need to buy the 26 inch Repitle.

A fellow worker just bought a set ... the bast%$# ... and he's had them out in some snow & on hard pack & he says he's very pleased with. He also says they ride way nice.
