Thread: Swim tire?

  1. #21
    I have a SPD Wedge with the Jet Drive. Do you think they would at least steer properly on the water without modifying the tires?

    I couldn't realy answer that. I would think most likely not. most of my steering in the water comes from leaning . Probley 80% leaning side to side and 20% stopping one side or the other

    I have these tires on my attex 6 of them even have 1 pair pattern in reverse. They don't swim hardly at all

    Momentum is key with these tires

    Any oscillating tool with correct blade will zip those lugs off quick. Just my 2 cents but worked well.

    Well this is a bit of an old thread now but here's here's video of my vanguard 2 with modified duro mud and snow tires in the water. Not fast by any means but they will defidently keep you moving
    Thanks for the video. Looks like a good swimmer.
    What it lacks in ground clearance it makes up for with traction.
