You do not want the bill for 4 new tires ....

Looked it up ... Avg of $9500 per tire, not including install.

Hahaha…yikes! I have been around a while and have NEVER seen tires THAT big!

In other news, I adore our new addition! 134k, one owner, 2005 EX, she’s been babied and it’s a lovely thing! 🧡🧡🧡

You sure those are only 9500 apiece? I would’ve estimated more than triple that much…the mining ore truck tires of similar size are closer to 50k apiece

Am I sure? No.
The only price I could find said $9500 each, but those averages could have been smaller tires than shown. I didn't ask for a quote.
I thought they would be closer to 40k, but I stated what I found, not my guess.

I do wonder if our elements have enough HP to actually turn the tires.

Here's a link that states that similar tires, in 2009, were $42,500 apiece.

Yes, congratulations on your E ... and welcome to this forum, I have found it informative and quite helpful!
I think the tires are off the newest Lego set - headed to John Bunyan country

In terms of tires you should always buy tires per fit of frame. 600. all weather all four every year. It can flip on a super curvey terrain with wrong sized wheels.
