fyi, with the experience i've had with humvee tires on road in mud and in sand on the road they suck and don't last very long only a few months, in the mud their ok the treads don't clean out as well as they should so you keep good traction there are alot better tires out there that would way out preform them, and in the sand they straight out suck a$$ i can't tell you how mean times i've got stuck and had to get snatched out. but that's just my 2 cents

Thanks, it kind of reminds you of the one from your truck when it was new doesn't it.

My spare off road rim and the tow straps came in today, still waiting on the tire to get here.
I'm ready to get stuck, how about y'all?


It'll be pretty quick for me to hook up to someone as long as they have a ball or a tow hook (depending on which end of their vehicle is facing me).

I don't know about the bungee cords, the hooks on those are normally pretty weak. But with the twine you'll be golden.
