haha, tractor tires?

the tires used on the monster trucks are from farming equipment, mainly turf sprayers.  they're so wide to give the equipment a low footprint when it's driving over the ground so it won't ruin the turf.  they use them on monster trucks because they're very soft and are a flotation tire.  some of the tread is cut off to lighten them and to give them a more aggressive look.  they're actually used as part of the suspension on the trucks, because they help to absorb some of the impact from landings.

Owning a CJ is for manly men, they allows you to do manly stuff like auto mechanics and welding and drinking beer. Manly men own CJs. Manly men do not drive hummers, they receive them.

Better off, they might get damaged when they ship with the vehicle.  Make sure you have something to cover the woofers when you pack em, and don't forget to take the fuse out before you unplug the subs.  You could fry the amp is it grounds out.
