I'll try again–The quoted part was why you may not need extended wheelbase and long suspension travel to travel comfortably at low speed on unimproved roads. Better?
Since I last posted I read that Rolls Royce used a 33" tire on a 4x19 rim. I'd like a narrow 26" on the front and 33" on the back; the street rodder's big 'n littles.
I used to run 145s on the front (on 5.5" rims). A narrow tire tracks well in sand or dirt (that's why they use them on farm tractors), but reaches it's limits early on pavement. Tall and narrow front and back, but sized to absorb the rearward weight bias.
