A few comments on the current 4wd Action thread helped to retrieve some thoughts which occurred to me when looking at a few tracks in the local bush.
Basically folk had driven through wet ground on large tyres ?35’s 37’s or whatever & left deep ruts making driving through on ‘standard’ tyres - 31’s 33’s impossible. My thought at the time was “I bet the selfish bastards had fun whilst wrecking it for everyone else” .
What happens when the 37” mob cut a track up to such a depth that even most with that size tyre no longer have sufficient clearance. Ever bigger tyres or the track just becomes inaccessible to all?
Do most folk with the taller tyres go super easy in ’31” country’ leaving it accessible for others, saving their height advantage for when they reach natural terrain which is only driveable with their extra ground clearance? I somehow doubt that many do this. Am I wrong (Hope so).
How do you feel about folk using bigger tyres on public tracks? (Respectful answers please - don’t want to start WW3!)
