This would be the absolute worst tire to install on any amphib in my opinion. It has a low side wall because the lugs on the tire are so tall, and this would give a bone jaring ride on any machine that does,nt have suspension on it. I,ve read stories about atv riders who run the high lifter outlaw tires on their atv,s ,and breaking axles .The Black Mamba tire would be even worse I assume at breaking parts.Comment

Another thing with heavy tires is when you are in water and hit the brakes, the transmission stops and everything else slams to a stop. Having a heavy tire like that is like a flywheel. That momentum of the tire spinning will break axles or chains a lot easier Im sure. Now I am not sure that is worse then hitting the brakes on land but I do now must of us dont lock the tires up at the rate of speed the tires are traveling in the water. In the water your tires are spinning as fast a physically possible and stopping instantly. I do realize those tires probably dont swim but just a think to consider on heavy wheels that do swim.Comment
