XL's on the 813A1

[shootiniron]

I posted earlier about doing the cooling system flush on this truck and also took all tires off to take to Mark (100dollarman) for a trade out.As usual doing business with Hundy was a pleasure.Well I thought I should post a few pics with them on.Was a chore to do the R&R but tollerable.They ride great and I like the looks and the contrast with the wheels 686 tan.What do you all think?

Tan wheels look good with the tan top

Very nice, did you notice the change in ride quality? I love the the XL's on my Deuce.

The XL's are the stock 11.00-20 size and the ride,WAY BETTER than the stock NDT's.I had thought about going with the super single 14.00-20's on hemett rims but I'm glad I stuck with this.For the folks that have the 16.00-20's on their trucks it must be a chore to R&R them.

I think it looks great. I wished someone would drop off a dozen of those tires here and my AO.

that really is a nice looking combination.

 

[Castle Bravo]

Definitely looks good.

Kenny, if you want 11 of them, contact me. I have 11 XLs mounted on rims in my garage...fresh rubber.

Sharp looking color scheme there ShootingIron.
Keeping the duals in the rear is real nice.

Nice lookin' grocery-getter. I like the tan/OD contrast. Nice lookin' meats, too. I personally think the duals are more aesthetically pleasing.

 

[lsansone]

can you tell us where you got the xl's ? I run them on both of my unimogs and love the way they drive. I was thinking of putting them on my 817 but the 12.5's are a little too small. the 11's would be better. I did not know that they were available.

thanks

On deuce wheels or 5ton? Either way asking price? Feel free to pm me

I like the looks of the and rims with the tan top, nice two tone action...

I also like the ride of the XL's and have them on my XM813, M817, and will be putting them on my M816. I run a similar version on my Cummins powered M37 (use the 900r16XZL's on it...) They are really nice both on and off road.

I have a source near me that stocks really fresh (as in, still have the stickers on them) Michelins. He also has Goodyears and Firestones for those who like those.

I've heard good things about Mark, but he is on the wrong side of the country from me, hence I am glad that I have Allen at Berg Tire nearby.

Thanks for posting.

Looks cool! These trucks are a lot of fun. Especially the 5tons!

 

[100dollarman]

A tan cargo cover would look good...
