I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought of this.

One of the things they didn't talk about with tires is sidewall durability, which is extremely important offroading. I'm a firm believer there are a few things not to skimp on building a vehicle. Tires, brakes, and lighting. Honestly the low trucks tires are not the cheapest you could go, it seems the whole purpose of lo truck is to be a BUDGET build as opposed to the cheapest parts you can find. Personally I think that's going to speak to the new enthusiasts a lot more by demonstrating that you don't need to break the bank to get acceptable performance!

Spot on. One thing they only briefly touched on was the grippiness of HT. Just like race tires, grippier means it wears out quicker, *but* offers a way smoother experience off-roading, tighter control and is less likely to chunk out. And someone who two-tracks regularly would probably have a Hi set and a Lo set. Sidenote, I love LT's steelies. Reminds me of those classic American Racing black steelies from the 90s ( back when chrome was king and those were the *only* black wheel option... Oh how the turns table).

It doesn't showcase the factor of how well will the high truck's parts last. How many miles will the tires get on them, how long will the suspension perform at top-notch, and will the Beadlock wheels eventually take an impact that cracks them beyond repair?

First off, you guys do some good videos! The difference in price isn't necessarily just traction and looks. The build of the tire matters. How tuff they are, usually, the more plies a tire has, the more they can resist punctures. Many years ago, I saw some sweet looking mud terrains at pep boys for under 150 a tire(if I remember correctly). After reading the sidewall and seeing that they had only 1 or 2 ply tread(normal for street tires) I walked out. Keep up the good work fellas

When spotting for someone while off-roading, use "driver" and "passenger" for directions instead of "left" and "right." Helps both parties be on the same page.

@SuperTheast

2 жыл бұрын

@Gareth Tucker for off-roading it’s easier to use driver and passenger though. In the US you would be hard pressed to find an off-road rig that is right hand drive so driver and passenger is the easier method. Not discounting the way you have experience in, but for what they’re doing it’s easier to use driver and passenger commands instead

@SuperTheast

2 жыл бұрын

@Gareth Tucker it’s truly up to the individual. In the US specifically we primarily use driver/passenger since virtually every vehicle that is on the road in the US has the driver on the same side. I don’t have enough experience in other countries but we use it that way even on single seaters since so many people have it hardwired that driver is always to the left and passenger to the right. Not to mention there is very little confusion since you’re working with terms that cannot be mixed up. Saying left hand down could confuse a driver on whether you mean their left or your left. While not highly likely, I have seen it happen. It’s the same reason that the machinery I work on doesn’t use left or right. We say operator or non operator since that removes any possible confusion with our service department

@@SuperTheast Learned in the military and we were not allowed to talk when spotting, only hand signals was accepted. If you had to explain something you stopped the driver and walked over to talk to him before going back to spotting. Trying to talk people through an obstacle is kind of a loosing prospect if the surroundings are noisy, and sitting in a truck like these doesn't make it easier. So establish a set of hand signals and stop yelling... Now driving with a spotter can be stressful as you have to ignore what *YOU THE DRIVER* feel would be needed and only do exactly what the spotter is signaling you no matter how much you feel you know better.

As someone with nearly 20 years of offroad experience I can tell you that there is no direct correlation between price and the overall performance of a tire offroad.

I'm actually running the kenda klever R/T 33x12.5r18 on my 2nd gen taco and love them. Ive ran coopers on everything up until this set and ill definitely be going with the kendas again. Mud, rain, snow, wet grass are no issue. Ive yet to actually need 4wd.

I got a set of the kenda at2 on my f150. I’ve put several hundred miles on them since the install. A lot of rainy days the first couple weeks. A couple flooded dirt roads for fun and a few dry days lol. The tires have performed flawlessly. Great grip and traction in all conditions. Hardly any weight to balance and are about 15lbs lighter per tire than the ones they replaced. And a 50-60k warranty to boot. Can’t wait to get some miles on them

Guys, what an awesome show concept! I love the authentic energy and the work.

As someone who does a lot of 4wding it hurt me when I first heard the "I don't think lower tyre pressures will help." Tyre pressure is make or break in a lot of off-road scenarios. Also a big difference you'll see in cheap to expensive tyres is noise, and longevity. How are they performing after 80,000km. That's where you'll find a big difference. Along with puncture resistance, in Australia when you're travelling remote on track you want a tyre that's got a much stronger sidewall so you don't get punctures from stakes and other sharp objects off- road.

So good this series.

Ive been in the off road industry since the early 1970’s and I have been telling customers the same thing since the early 1980’s. You guys hit the nail on the head, if part A is 500$ more than part B will you receive a 500$ improvement. If you only get a 100$ improvement then I always felt the lower cost (unless of course you have unlimited cash flow) was a better choice. Starter fluid is even better and more explosive! You’re right 80-100$ to mount and balance those non bead lock tires, that’s a deal unless you have a mega buck balancer sitting in your garage. I’m very familiar with Gorman, that very hill can be idled up that hill with stock tires and if you’re on a real budget a 300$ lunchbox locker. But hey the glitter looks trick driving on the I5 freeway. Entertaining video gentlemen!

Negative. The speed of a tire wearing down mostly depends on the rubber compound. The softer the compound the quicker it wears off.

I took them to moab, road hells revenge, fins and things, White rim trail, chicken corners and la sal mountains (in the snow). They did everything with no issues I had grip everywhere. Oh and they still drive great on the the street and highway. I will be buying a lot more kenda tires.

I have Kenda Klever R/T.....absolutely love em....they r the hybrids so not as wimpy as the AT but not loud like the MT (i did have ProComps Xtreme Terrain put on by the dealer as well as ProComp wheels and oh my lord it was really loud) so switched to the R/T's and wrapped them around KMC wheels (not beadlocks) they r really great highway and offroad.

11:20- this part kills me high team with bead locks disagree that airing down will increase traction....the entire purpose of a bead lock is so you can run 6psi and have a nice contact patch that grips and molds to rocks giving you the maximum amount of grip that the tire is capable of and not db (debead) in the process

That’s what I was thinking. They could be using $50/ea steelies from summit racing, a $300 eBay lift, and some federal tires. These tests are also pretty bad. They don’t show the true difference between high and low products. You buy good tires for traction, but also puncture protection, lifetime, sidewall strength, warranties, wear patterns, etc. But they didn’t do any high speed traction test. And those Icons shine in speed over desert terrain, not slow crawling

5:18 chrisfix would be proud

As far as offroad, you have to do more trails, also depends on driver skill. I actually have the Kendas on my Offraod Xterra and have been happy with them so far. They are also a 3 peak tire like the Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws (I have on my Ram truck) and KO2s. Unless its a mud tire the road noise comes wih time and tire wear. I think the more you guys drive, build and wheel these truck the more accurate you can say about the tires. However there is something to be said about certain tires that are more expensive some of them really out perform other tires by a lot and some dont bc they are more for looks. This is my first video with you guys and I am subscribing anf gonna follow these Taco builds. Personally somethings you can go cheap and other things you cant. Just depends. Love this awesome comparison tho.
