The only problem with Frontrunners and Maxton is that some guys are putting
a lot of HP combined with a lot of traction on a tire that was never
designed to be on a drive wheel. They work fine if your easy on them. The
absolutly best tire for 'Maxton' is a NASCAR race tire, 27.5 to 28" dia.,
but 10 to 12" wide. If your using the Dodge body just add some tubs to
allow for the wider tires.
